Mourinho eyes coaching opportunity in England
Published in The Saudi Gazette on 27 - 12 - 2011

Former Chelsea manager Jose Mourinho aims to return to the English Premier League when his stint in charge of La Liga club Real Madrid ends, the Portuguese coach said Monday.
“I am very, very happy to be in Real Madrid. It is a great experience for me,” Mourinho told BBC Radio Four's ‘Today' program.
“I believe it is probably the biggest club in the history of football, I didn't want to miss the chance to work here. But my passion is England and my next step will be to go back and, if possible, go and stay for a long time,” said Mourinho, whose four-year contract with Real runs to the end of the 2013-14 season.
“Get me a good club in a couple of years,” the 48-year-old added with a laugh.
Mourinho also said he believed success depended on genius — on the pitch but also in the dugout. “I think the genius will make always the difference. And the genius in my sport is about some unbelievable players that can break every organization and every work you can do. Genius in managing also exists. For me in football the most important thing is man-management. Football for me is a human science, it is about man.”
Mourinho's three-year spell at Chelsea ended in 2007 and he went on to lead Italian side Inter Milan to the Champions League title in 2010, his second success in Europe's elite club competition following a 2004 triumph with Porto.
He is seen by the media as a possible successor to Manchester United manager Alex Ferguson, who has a rolling one-year contract with the English champions.
Enrique longs for Spain call-up
Liverpool's left-back Jose Enrique insisted he deserves a place in Spain's national squad ahead of next year's European football championship, in comments published Monday. “I think I deserve a chance,” he was quoted as saying by leading Spanish sports daily Marca, while acknowledging that Valencia player Jordi Alba “is doing a very good job” for Spain.
