( CNN ) -- Jose Mourinho revealed that he will take time to learn about Real Madrid before deciding to make any major changes , as he was unveiled as the Spanish club 's new coach on Monday . The 47-year-old has signed a four-year contract just two weeks after leading Inter Milan to success in the European Champions League final , sealing an unprecedented treble for the Italian club in his second season at the San Siro . Real paid a reported $ 10 million compensation to Inter to secure his services after ending Chilean coach Manuel Pellegrini 's only season in charge , which ended without a trophy despite a massive spending spree on the likes of Cristiano Ronaldo and Kaka . Mourinho , who spoke in Spanish , English and his native Portuguese to the assembled media throng , said it was too early to predict wholesale changes to the star-studded squad . `` I believe it 's time to analyze the situation , to get to know my club , ask lots of questions and get answers , '' he said . `` I need to realize the direction of my work . The most important thing is not the coach or the players but the club . We are too small compared to the dimension of the club . `` If we work as a group , it 's not difficult to get results . I want this group to have an identity , to win everything . The strength of my team is always the team and not the individuals . `` The club is happy with the roster of last season and so am I . We do n't need major changes . `` We need three or four players for the coach to have more possibilities to get closer to my ideal of a team . But I do n't think it 's going to be a summer with a lot of changes . I think it will be a more calm summer with all the focus on the World Cup . '' Mourinho said he was confident of a successful relationship with compatriot Ronaldo , the world 's most expensive player following his $ 130 million transfer from Manchester United in July . `` Cristiano Ronaldo is an incredible player not only for Real but for the whole of football . Cristiano is a winner and it 's not difficult to persuade him of this , '' he said . `` I do n't know if I was born to coach Real Madrid , but I was born to be a football coach . I love important challenges . `` I am Jose Mourinho and I do n't change . I arrive with all my qualities and my defects . My attraction to Real Madrid is due to its history , its frustrations in recent years and its expectations to win . `` It 's a unique club and I believe that not to coach Real leaves a void in a coach 's career . '' Mourinho , who has now twice won Europe 's premier club competition , said he was confident of completing his tenure at the Santiago Bernabeu , where 10 managers have departed in the past 10 seasons . `` I think a coach needs to be ready to be sacked . But if a coach fears that , he does n't work well and has great problems , '' he said . `` I am a coach that has a lot of self-esteem and confidence , and I do n't think about the possibility of being sacked . I think four years of contract is enough to win , to build a strong team for the present and the future . `` The sacking of Pellegrini does n't make me happy . I am never happy when a coach is sacked . But football is like that . `` I have a lot of confidence in my players , I have the hope that my new players have confidence in me . ''
