JOSE MOURINHO has reportedly laid down the law with three strict rules to kick off his Real Madrid revamp.
The former Chelsea, Manchester United and Tottenham boss returned for his second stint at the Bernabeu in June â 13 years after he left.

Mourinho will be tasked with getting the best out of Kylian Mbappe, Jude Bellingham and Vinicius Junior this season.
And he has wasted no time tightening up discipline in a group with some big personalities.
According to AS, his new deal-breakers are centred around food, punctuality and recovery.
First off, Realâs nutritionist has been given more authority to instruct the players on what to eat for every meal, every day.
The nutritionist used to take on more of an advisory role, but their recommendations are now compulsory.
And although that takes freedom away from the players, they are said to have reacted positively to the change.
From that alone it is clear that Mourinho means business â and his approach to lateness is just as firm.
Whereas Los Blancosâ super-rich stars used to be fined if they were late to training or team meetings, Mourinho will now make them train separately from the main group.

The boss, 63, has implemented this as a blanket rule for the entire squad, with solo gym workouts lined up for those who break it.
Mourinho has also put measures in place to stay on top of injuries.
From now on, under the Portugueseâs watchful eye, every recovery session will take place at Realâs Valdebebas training base.
The idea is to deal with all medical issues in-house so that club staff are across every detail.
