MOURINHO HINTS HE WANTS TO LIVE A NORMAL LIFE, FOR NOW
Former Manchester United manager Jose Mourinho has told reporters that he and the club will survive without the other after his dismissal, a day after he was booted from the hotseat at Old Trafford.
The Portuguese led the Red Devils to Europa League and domestic success during his tenure at the helm, but a poor run of form across the first half of the 2018-19 campaign has seen him pay the price.
Former United forward Ole Gunner Solskjaer has taken charge on an interim basis until the end of the season.
And, while much of the football world has been discussing United’s decision and what the future might hold for Mourinho, the departed manager was relatively tight-lipped on his tenure and plans as he appeared publicly for the first time since the news broke.
Trailed by members of the media as he left his house in London, Mourinho responded to queries from Sky Sports saying that both himself and the club have futures without the other.
“I think you know me, I don’t change,” the 55-year-old said. “What I did when I left Chelsea for example is that same that I’m going to do now.
“I keep the good things and I don’t speak about anything that happened in the club. I could speak about not as good but that’s not me.
“Manchester United has a future without me and I have a future without Manchester United.
“It’s over, that’s me and that’s how I’ve always been. I was always very critical of managers that leave clubs and then they come out and they speak about the details of what happened, who is to blame. That’s not me.
“Until I get back to football I feel I have to right to live my normal life.”
