Mourinho tells Real Madrid fans: Trust me, Sahin and Altintop will be good business

Real Madrid boss Jose Mourinho is adamant injured pair Hamit Altintop and Nuri Sahin will prove shrewd signings. Both Turkey internationals are yet to feature for Real since their arrival due to injury.

Mourinho insisted: "The medical examinations that take place before each signing aren't my responsibility, but it is a manager's responsibility to know what's good business. A player that cost nothing and who is presently injured but will be fit in a few months is good business. Altintop has a three or four year contract and will only be injured the first three months of the season."
