Jose ‘too young’ to be tempted by China
Print Edition
RICH Chinese clubs are unlikely to lure Jose Mourinho away from England as the Manchester United manager says he is enjoying the challenge of competing in the Premier League.
Chinese clubs have been shelling out huge sums of money on foreign players and managers, with Chelsea’s Oscar reportedly set to become the latest Brazilian to head to the Chinese Super League on a 52-million-pound (US$64.28 million) transfer.
“China money is attractive for everyone, but I love my football at the highest level more,” Mourinho told Sky Sports. “Too young, 53, too young, too many years of football to go to a place like China. I want to stay in the most difficult place to win, so I’m in the right place.”
Mourinho said he wanted to stay on at United beyond his three-year contract, though he added the board had not offered him an extended deal yet.
“They are being super supportive of me, and always gave me the feeling that three years is not the time I am going to stay here, I always had the feeling that I am going to stay for more time. I’m loving my job at Manchester United, and they know that if one day they bring the contract, I will sign it.”
