Charismatic Portuguese manager José Mourinho has expressed his position on a possible return to the Premier League.
Fenerbahçe manager Jose Mourinho has clarified his stance on returning to the Premier League one day. The Portuguese coach was furious after being sent off during his side's 1-1 draw against Manchester United in the Europa League. Mourinho was complaining about the lack of a penalty for his team when he received a straight red from the referee.
“I think the best thing to do is to leave Fenerbahçe and go to a club that does not play UEFA competitions,” he said after the match. “I'm ready to leave if you find an English club at the bottom of the table that needs a manager in two years. And I don’t want to say more.”
Mourinho does not want to play it safe
These comments made by The Special One caused a lot of talk. So, the person concerned wanted to come back to it to affirm that he was not speaking at face value. This week, he added to Sky Sports: “Even though the Premier League is the best competition in the world, I would never go there to manage a club in the relegation zone. I’m never going to manage one of those teams.”
As a reminder, in England, Mourinho has already coached Manchester United, Chelsea (twice) and Tottenham.
