Mourinho Admits Frustration Over Limited Playing Time for Real Madrid Stars

Real Madrid manager Jose Mourinho has admitted that he is frustrated by the difficulty of giving all his players regular playing time, following the club’s 3-2 Champions League victory over AEK Athens.

Mourinho made the remarks while responding to a question about Brazilian forward Endrick, who came on as a substitute during the encounter in Greece.

The Spanish giants had to fight back twice before securing the victory, with Endrick among the players introduced from the bench.

The Brazilian has struggled for regular appearances under Mourinho, who reportedly blocked his proposed loan move away from the club during the summer transfer window.

Speaking after the match, Mourinho acknowledged the challenge of managing a squad filled with players competing for limited starting positions.

“It makes me angry how many great players I have that I can’t play or start every game,” he said.

The Portuguese manager’s comments come as Real Madrid prepare for their LaLiga trip to Valencia on Saturday night, before the international break.
