Real Madrid manager Jose Mourinho contacts Cape Verde midfielder Sidney Lopez Cabral after the team’s World Cup group-stage matches, according to Cabral. Cabral says Mourinho sent him a personal message praising his performances against Spain and Uruguay. The reports describe Cabral’s showing in those games as a key factor in the attention he received from Mourinho. While the outlets emphasize Mourinho’s direct outreach and the specific opponents—Spain and Uruguay—the accounts do not provide further details on the content of the message beyond the praise. The story centers on Cabral’s claim that Mourinho’s response followed his World Cup heroics and that it was not mediated through intermediaries, but sent personally. No additional information is included about any subsequent football-related actions such as contract talks or training invitations. The reports focus on the acknowledgment from a high-profile manager after international matches rather than on broader developments involving either Cape Verde or Cabral’s club future.
