Jose Mourinho has said that he will be very happy at his next club and will “walk into that press conference with a big smile”.
The Portuguese, in an interview with Sky Sports, also insists his time at Manchester United was a success.
Mourinho was dismissed at Old Trafford last December and replaced by Ole Gunnar Solskjaer.
He insists the second-place finish in 2017/18 was an even bigger achievement but admits he was surprised at the criticism he received and thought the success deserved more credit.
“I can just say that the Manchester United time was not an easy time. I always felt that to win the Europa League was fantastic and it didn’t look like it was, the way people approach it.
“To finish second was even more than that [success], so probably I was feeling a little bit like: ‘Wow, I’m working well, I’m giving everything and I’m not getting what I think that deserves’.
“The only thing I can promise you is that when I have the next club, the next project, I will be so, so happy that I will walk into that press conference with a big smile. That I can promise,” Mourinho told Sky Sports.
