Real Madrid No2 Aitor Karanka admits he's loved working with coach Jose Mourinho. Karanka's future will be up in the air should Mourinho leave in the summer.

He said: "I've been with the Boss and this coaching team for two and a half years, learning and enjoying every day more, even if there are many people who would have you believe the opposite. I am made up to be working with a manager who is so respected in the world of football by all the greatest professionals: players, directors, managers, coaches… respected worldwide.

"And what is more I can boast of having five more friends than I had before and the day that I leave, whether it is this year, next year or ten years from now, I will always have this and then I will see what I will do when the time comes, not before."
