Jose Mourinho of Inter has refused to rule out the prospect of a switch to Manchester United later in his managerial career.
The
Portuguese boss, though, stated that he was unsure when the opportunity
would present itself due to the longevity and success of Sir Alex Ferguson.
The News of the World quotes Mourinho as saying, "I have big jobs left in me that is for sure — but I can’t commit to which ones.
"If
you want me to rule out ever being Manchester United manager I can’t.
Special clubs need special managers so in theory it could work, but
nobody knows what the future is in football.
"The England
national team wanted me as coach and that is the biggest job in
England, so I am sure when Sir Alex retires they will look at the best
managers in the world and I certainly fall into that category.
"How
much time I can’t say, Sir Alex doesn’t look like he is ready to stop.
But when you are managing a winning team you don’t want to stop — and
if you have health then there is no reason to."
With Fergie showing little sign of slowing down, Mourinho may have a wait on his hands before heading to Old Trafford.
More
importantly, he is mere months into his tenure at Inter, who face the
Red Devils next week in a vital second leg Champions League knock-out
clash.
i would like to see him at OT actually
Hope that he will replace Rafa Benitez which is currently the worst manager among the top 5 clubs.
