Sky Sports reporter Gary Cotterill got hold of Jose Mourinho as the former Manchester United manager was seen walking around his home in central London.
This was the first time the manager spoke to the media after being sacked from his Old Trafford role and the Portuguese was coy on his plans for the future.
“I have nothing to say. You know me.” 🤐
Jose Mourinho speaks for the first time since leaving @ManUtd near his home in London.

“You know me” seemed to be the response to most of Cotterill’s questions, and it isn’t a surprise that the former United manager didn’t want to open up about his sacking and how things turned sour at the club.
Mourinho even joked that the reporter could follow him to Battersea and truth be told, Mourinho lost the dressing room and many players weren’t performing at their best.
We were beaten at Anfield and lost the tie 3-1 but it could have been a lot worse. Ole Gunnar Solskjaer has been named as the interim manager until the end of the season and the hunt is on for a full-time manager.
