Mourinho reveals rejected offer to manage PSG twice

Chelsea boss Jose Mourinho has revealed that he has twice turned down the offer to manage Paris Saint Germain and admitted that he could yet go to the French champions when he is sacked at his current club.

The politically-savvy Portuguese boss insisted that he is happy at table-topping Chelsea in his second coming in West London. But he also said that he is not even halfway through a career where he has already managed in Portugal, England, Italy and Spain. fter revealing that he turned down PSG in 2011 and again last year, Mourinho said that he is in a club where he wants to be, but added that football is football and there would come a day when Chelsea owner Roman Abramovich is going to say that it is over for him, The Mirror reported.

Mourinho said that he is a football man and when that moment comes, he would go and respect the decision of the club.

Mourinho said that there are players there who are his friends like Zlatan Ibrahimovic and Thiago Silva. He said that meeting PSG in the Champions League final this year is difficult for them as well as PSG.

PSG, the richest club in France, were bought by Qatari Sports Investments in 2011 at the start of a spending spree which has seen them reach the last two Champions League quarter-finals.

Mourinho, who signed a four-year deal when he returned to Stamford Bridge last year, said that he had been the first choice to be the PSG manager before Carlo Ancelotti in 2011 and Laurent Blanc last year.

Mourinho claimed that he knows the PSG project before the start of the project, and added that he was the first option for then sporting director Leonardo before Carlo Ancelotti.

The Chelsea boss said that PSG offered him the job before Ancelotti and then again when he left, twice. He added that he thought about it a lot but once there was Real Madrid and then he came back to Chelsea for a second time.
