MADRID, Feb. 11 (Xinhua) -- Real Madrid coach Jose Mourinho this Saturday showed his irritation1 at rumors2 over his future in the club.
Sources both in Spain and in England are currently speculating that Mourinho will leave Real Madrid at the end of the current season, despite having two years remaining on his contract with the club.
When asked about whether or not he planned to abandon Real Madrid, Mourinho once again criticized the press.
"I think you are the ones who should know the answer to that. It is not me who is provoking the story, so you will have to ask your sources, who remain anonymous3 for you and imaginary for me. I have nothing more to say," said Mourinho, who was also unwilling4 to discuss rumored5 interest in Arsenal6 striker Robin7 Van Persie.
The Madrid coach then looked ahead to the coming month, when his side do not have to leave the capital to play any of their league fixtures9, with home games against Levante and Racing10 Santander and a short trip to face Rayo Vallecano on the horizon.
"Maybe it is a tougher month for us than for Barcelona - We play Levante, who are fourth, Racing who are in the relegation11 zone and then Rayo, who are one of the revelations of season. We have a difficult series of games in February and it will be hard to find anyone who has it tougher," he said.
Finally the Madrid coach discussed Levante, who will be Sunday's rivals in the Santiago Bernabeu Stadium.
"They have a lot of merit, but not because they beat us earlier in the season, but for being in fourth place in February, when we all thought they would have dropped down by October or November. Their players, coaches and club have done an incredible job," he said.
