Mourinho Could Manage Into His 70s: Originally Reported by Bleacher Report

Real Madrid manager Jose Mourinho says that he is not fully satisfied yet with his medals haul and hopes to remain in football for many more years.

Mourinho explained that despite winning league titles in Portugal, England, Italy and Spain, and two Champions League trophies with different clubs, his coaching career was still in its early phases.

"What I did was amazing, but at the same time I look forward and I feel myself better than ever, stronger than ever," Mourinho told Sky Sports. "I am still at the beginning of my professional life."


The former Porto, Chelsea and Internazionale coach, who will turn 50 next January, said that he could see himself emulating current Manchester United boss Alex Ferguson and remaining in football into his 70s.

"I understand perfectly why Sir Alex is still in the job and I think I will be the same," Mourinho said. "I love football so much, I love coaching so much. I am really very, very young. Even when I become 50, I have a lot in front of me."

The 'Only One' said that such a landmark could affect other people, but he will keep looking forward to life's next challenges.

"Fifty is a number with a certain impact," he said. "It is a number I believe sometimes has a psychologically negative impact on many people because they realise the world moves very, very fast and our lives are very, very short. It is a number that makes me think and look back, but also look forward too."

Alex Ferguson Confirms Rooney's Request to Move. Via b/r

Manchester United will already look different next season without its longtime manager, but there could be even more change if the most recognizable player also leaves town. According to Sky Sports (via  ESPN ),  Wayne Rooney  has asked for a transfer off the club following the season: Sir Alex Ferguson recently finished his final match at Old Trafford after  announcing his retirement  and came away with a 2-1 victory. However, Rooney was unused in the win and was not even available as a substitute. In the previous match against Chelsea, the forward did not come on until the 69th minute.   Rooney has seen his role diminish greatly this season thanks mostly to the addition of striker Robin van Persie from Arsenal. After finishing second in the league with 27 goals a year ago, Rooney only totaled 12 this season. Meanwhile, Van Persie currently leads the English Premier League and should finish on top for the second year in a row. The addit...
