Mourinho demands Real Madrid accelerate new contracts for Pepe, Dudek

Real Madrid coach Jose Mourinho is keen to secure Pepe and Jerzy Dudek to new deals before they leave for their preseason tour of the US.

Pepe has been in new contract talks with Real since before the World Cup and after he proved his fitness in South Africa, Mourinho is anxious to secure the future of his countryman.

Dudek remains a free agent after his deal expired last month, but Mourinho wants the former Liverpool No1 as cover for Iker Casillas.

In Pepe's case, Mourinho has instructed Real chiefs to get his signature on a new contract before he returns for preseason training.
