Jose Mourinho talks down Newcastle United links
Former Manchester United manager Jose Mourinho has been heavily linked with the Newcastle United manager role after Rafa Benitez parted ways with the club a few days ago. However, the 'Special One' has now rubbished such claims and maintained that he is a 'winner'.
"The only thing that I know is what I don't want: I am quite pathological in the sense of I have to play to win.
"Then, if I don't win, then that's my problem and the players and the club and the structure but I need a project where the feeling is I play to win.
"If somebody gives me a wonderful 10-year contract and the objective of the team is to stay in the first half of the table and if you finish seventh, eighth or ninth, it's perfect, then that's not for me. That's my nature.
"My next [position] is to fight to win."
