Porto to do all they can to bring Pepe back in the summer

"We need to be realistic. He earns more than 5 million euros and that complicates everything. Having said that, I have the hope that one day he will return, but I can't guaruntee it because that salary is incompatible with the club."

Real Madrid are aware of the age of the footballer and probably wouldn't oppose his exit too much, although first they will have to find a replacement, and Varane will have to reaffirm himself in their plans. 

The Porto President, in any case, joked during the interview that Jose Mourinho could also return to the club this summer should he not receive an offer from a European giant.
