Editorial Policy

Mourinho.net aims to publish football coverage that is clear, sourced and useful to readers. This policy explains how news, transfer stories and evergreen pages should be handled.

Sourcing

News articles should be based on identifiable sources such as club statements, competition reports, press conferences or reputable football publishers. When a story depends on another report, the article should identify the source and avoid presenting speculation as confirmation.

Accuracy

Articles should avoid inventing quotes, injuries, transfer fees, contract details, dates or outcomes. If a detail is not supported by the source material, it should not be stated as fact.

Transfers

Transfer coverage should distinguish between interest, talks, bids, agreements and completed deals. A confirmed transfer requires a reliable confirmation, usually from a club, league, player representative or highly credible report.

Corrections

If an article contains a factual error, it should be corrected promptly. Material corrections should preserve reader trust by making the updated information clear. See the corrections policy.

Evergreen Pages

Reference pages should be reviewed when major football facts change, such as a managerial appointment, trophy win, transfer rule change or competition format update.
