Real Madrid chiefs have no idea if Jose Mourinho will stick or twist at the end of the season.

AS says sources insist Mourinho's house-hunting revelations this week do not necessarily mean he is quitting Real at the end of the season. But it is correct to say the prospect of Mourinho staying is becoming increasingly remote.

Indeed, the only certainty Real directors have is if they do not win the title this season, then Mourinho will go, which is unlikely given their ten point lead at the top of the table.

Arsenal, Tottenham and former club Chelsea have all been linked with Mourinho, but a 12-month break from management has also been mooted for next season.
