José Mourinho has been named LaLiga's Manager of the Month for October. Real Madrid had an outstanding month under the Portuguese coach, winning every match they played, including a 2-1 victory over Barcelona in El Clásico. The club also defeated Villarreal 1-0 and Sevilla 4-1 during the period.

This is Mourinho's first manager-of-the-month award of the season. He beat Real Sociedad's Pellegrino Matarazzo and Atlético Madrid's Diego Simeone in the voting. Mourinho succeeds Barcelona manager Hansi Flick, who won the award for September.
