'Ruin my weekend' - Jose Mourinho reveals why he stopped going to Chelsea matches and sets one key condition for next managerial job

Mourinho has been out of work since being sacked by Roma in January. Now, the former Porto boss has said if he does take up a new role, that club must have a "good training centre". Moreover, he has not been contacted by a Portuguese team and he stopped going to Chelsea games when fans started singing his name at Stamford Bridge. The 61-year-old also balked at the notion of joining Benfica, following Andre Villas-Boas being elected as Porto's new president - a man he had a long-running feud with.

When asked about Villas-Boas' new Porto role and if that would make him more likely to become Benfica's manager, he told Portuguese publication A Bola: "Don't ask me questions like that... I'm not in football driven by those feelings. Don't ask me questions about clubs that have a coach. I have always remained apart from any unethical behaviour. Questions like these often ruin my weekend. In London, I live two minutes from Chelsea's stadium, from my house you can hear the goals and people's demonstrations. The day the stadium started singing my name, I stopped going to football. I have to go to other stadiums. It takes 20/30 minutes from my house to Luz. I went to two or three games. They started asking questions like that and I'm not going anymore. They screwed my life up with those questions."

On his future managerial goals, he added: "I have no projects. What happens will happen. The weight of my story is heavy. I know that even when I coach teams that aren't cut out to win, people expect me to always win. In the last two years I reached two European finals. I want to train, it is a fundamental part of my life, without training there is no happiness. Where? In any club that has a good training centre to train well. I didn't have any invitation from a Portuguese club."

Mourinho has proven to be one of the most successful managers of the 21st century. He has won the Champions League multiple times and managed European giants such as Real Madrid, Inter, Chelsea, Porto, and more. Many say he is not the managerial force he once was but it is clear he is not done with the sport.

Mourinho admitted in March he wanted to take up a new managerial post but would wait for the right opportunity. The former Roma manager has been linked with a Saudi Pro League move, Newcastle United, former side Chelsea and more.
