Trending
Even from their time as opposing managers, Mourinho has always enjoyed a great rapport with Sir Alex Ferguson and it looks as though his time off from football has done nothing to hamper that relationship.
When asked about what Ferguson gave him, Mourinho said there was two main things. “Bring the umbrella," he quipped. "Yesterday it was raining at the training ground – good advice. The second was for me to bring my typical bottle of wine because there will be many more opportunities to drink it together."
The Portuguese manager also admitted that the pair have plenty of time to meet and that Ferguson will "always be welcome to the training ground". Before adding that Ferguson's opinion is important and also speaking about various United legends including the likes of Paul Scholes, who are currently working as pundits.
"We will have a lot of time to share our personal stuff – friends, family and life. His opinion is an important opinion for me. So many legends at this club love it. So many are in the punditry business at the moment – every one will be important whether I agree or not agree. I will always give a look to learn from what they give to me.”
