mourinhoJosé Mourinho’s agent, Jorge Mendes, has said the Portuguese is “the best coach in the world.”
Mourinho’s second spell at Chelsea ended on Thursday, following a poor run of results, that saw the Blues lose nine times in 16 games.
The club’s board held an emergency meeting where they decided to let the most successful manager in their history leave.
“Jose Mourinho does not stop being who he is and he is still the best coach in the world despite leaving Chelsea,” Mendes told Portuguese newspaper A Bola.
“When Mourinho left Chelsea the first time, he accepted a tremendous challenge and did what no-one in the football world believed he could do and that was to take on Inter[nazionale] and lead them to win the Champions League, Serie A and Coppa Italia, a truly remarkable achievement.
“Then he went to Real Madrid and inspired an historic achievement of the Spanish league, beating all possible records against a great Barcelona, and also the Copa del Rey.”
