Jose Mourinho leaving Tottenham's training ground. PA

Jose Mourinho in no rush to return to football following Tottenham sacking

The 58-year-old lost his job following a disappointing second half of the season.

JOSE MOURINHO INSISTED he will โ€œwait to be back in footballโ€ after being sacked by Tottenham on April 19.

The 58-year-old lost his job following a disappointing second half of the season where Spurs dropped from the top of the Premier League to outside the European places.

Mourinho left the north London club just six days before their Carabao Cup final at Wembley, which Manchester City won 1-0.

โ€œI have no plans,โ€ Mourinho told the Times Magazine.

โ€œI am going on with my normal life. I feel fresh. I feel calm. I am on holiday.

โ€œI have more time to be doing my homework and analysis. Iโ€™ll wait to be back in football.

โ€œNot just for the right club, but for the right culture. Maybe next season is premature, we will see.โ€

    Hard luck Shams. I suppose itโ€™s difficult to beat the plastic pitch, the silly flares, the shed and the rubbish stadium!!

    @John Kelly: yeah itโ€™s wishful thinking. We would have to lose 4 games and patโ€™s win all remaining 6 .which they wonโ€™t

    @Kieran Tierney: oh definitely wishful thinking but not a great time for the momentum to be halted, another bad result next game things might start getting twitchy i havenโ€™t looked at pats run in but they are good enough to win 6 on the bounce, yaโ€™s more than likely have it, but could only come down to a stoppge time winner so at least we can say it was closer than the runaway predicted earlier, but you wonโ€™t care either wayโ€ฆ

    Have to keep you all guessing lads!
    1. We own our own stadium.
    2. We donโ€™t have a plastic pitch.
    3. Our normal/happy/real supporters donโ€™t light flares.
    4. We have beaten the top 2 already this season!
    5. Have to keep you guessing as to which club I support until we qualify for Europe!

    See you end of the season!! Xx
