Di Stefano backs Mourinho for UCL glory

Real Madrid legend Alfredo Di Stefano believes that Jose Mourinho has what it takes to deliver a Champions League to the club.

Real Madrid have stuttered to their domestic campaign this season and are trailing league leaders Barcelona by 13 points after their disappoitning 2-2 draw against Espanyol last weekend, putting pressure under Mourinho's future at the club.

However, Di Stefano believes that Mourinho is still the right man to take charge of Los Blancos and backed the Portuguese to deliver a Champions League win to the club.

"We have an excellent team and a great manager who is going to put the guys on the right track to win our 10th Champions League," Di Stefano was quoted as saying by Marca.

"There are those who have a talent for connecting with people. Real Madrid have that talent in connecting with the Champions League, which is what we need most now.

"We have to accept that failure is a necessary part of success. That's why we have to learn detailed lessons from our Liga defeats.

"Everything is relative and you have to learn that sometimes you win and other times you lose."

Mourinho has previously won the Champions League twice - the first time with Porto in 2004 and then with Inter Milan in 2010.
