“Prove to me that you really want me” – Mourinho speaks on a return to England

Real Madrid’s manager, Jose Mourinho, has once again reiterated that he would love a return to English football. The 49-year-old, who has coached Chelsea, however stated that any club that wants him, must really show that they do. “I will go where people really want me and, when that moment arrives, they show me they really want me,” Mourinho told BBC Radio 5 Live. “But I have to repeat always this: I am at Real Madrid. I like very much to be (there). I want one
day to be back in English football, yes. I always said that.” The Portuguese is strongly tipped to take over from Sir Alex Ferguson, when he retires. But he says he will never get close to repeating the Scot’s feat. “Impossible, impossible, because he is the one, he was all his life working in the British football. The numbers he has are impossible for somebody to – not to beat – it’s impossible for someone to be close,” he said. Mourinho also revealed how he has achieved his own success in Portugal, England, Italy and Spain. “When I go to a club, I wear the shirt, I feel the shirt like it’s my first one or my last one,” he said. “I feel the fans as part of myself. I create eternal links with fans. “I go to play against Chelsea and I feel (it), I go to Italy and I feel (it). I work for the clubs, I work for the people that trust me, and of course the owners and the directors, but the clubs are the fans. “For me, it’s one of my qualities. I become immediately one of them and I feel that I am one of them with a privileged position to fight for the club and to try to bring to all of them happiness.”
