Immediate former Manchester United manager Jose Mourinho revealed he wants to work with people he loves in his next job in management.
The Portuguese tactician has been without a coaching job since he was sacked by Manchester United in December and he admitted that he had already turned down a job due to a club’s lack of ambition, adding his next move would be to an outfit that had people he enjoyed working with.
“If it is a club without ambition I wouldn’t go. I refused because I want high-level football and ambitions at the highest level.
“That is my second item [of requirement]. My first item is structural empathy. I want to work with people that I love. People I want to work with, that I am happy to work with, and with whom I share the same ideas.
“It was what I had at Inter. There are clubs like this. Normally, that is a very important part of a successful club,” the former Real Madrid and Chelsea boss told The Telegraph.
Mourinho led United to a Europa League title, EFL Cup and Community Shield, but his side struggled to begin this season, leading to his exit with United appointing their former player Ole Gunnar Solskjaer to replace him on an interim basis.
