Mourinho: 'I know what I want'

By Football Italia staff

Jose Mourinho discussed his Treble-winning campaign for Inter, preparing for his next club and why he has “already turned down three or four offers.”

The former Manchester United manager’s career highlight remains the historic Treble with Inter in 2010, lifting the Scudetto, Champions League and Coppa Italia.

“Inter hadn’t won the Champions League in almost 50 years. There was an entire generation of Interisti who had that dream,” Mou told beIN Sports France.

“At the same time, the President (Massimo Moratti) was the son of the last President who won the Cup. So the Moratti family had this dream too.

“There was a generation of players who had won several titles in Italy and dreamed of winning the Champions League. It was a really strong squad, but also a real family. We all had this dream and fought hard to make it happen.

“At the end of the day, I think the Treble was what that family deserved. It was fantastic.”

There have been reports Mourinho could return to Inter next season to replace Luciano Spalletti.

“It’s been three-and-a-half months since I last managed a club and I am preparing to do it again. When you are in the world of football, between Press conferences, games, video sessions, match analysis and daily problems, you never have time for yourself. I have therefore used the last few months to reboot.

“The position of a Coach is special and I enjoy the daily work. I want to return this summer, starting from June, for the beginning of the season.

“I know exactly what I don’t want, which is why I have already turned down three or four offers. I also know what I do want. I don’t mean the name of the club, but the type of work, the style of club. I know what I want and I hope to get it.”
