The Lisbon team "Benfica" has decided to insure itself by hiring coach Jose Mourinho.

The Portuguese press reports that the 62-year-old specialist cannot be guaranteed a two-year contract.

At the end of this season, the "Primeira" club will be able to unilaterally terminate the contract.

Throughout the football year, J. Mourinho will earn 6 million euros "net" – this will be a similar amount to what he received at Istanbul's "Fenerbahçe" and "Roma" teams.

The Portuguese has long become a multimillionaire – the total amount earned just from severance payments has exceeded the 100 million euros mark.
