Real Madrid coach Jose Mourinho has ruled out the possibility of him managing Manchester City.

The Portuguese boss has made no secret of his desire to return to England, but insists it will not be with the Eastlands club.

It had been thought that the former Chelsea boss could be in line for a move to City, as reports in the past have pointed towards owner Sheikh Mansour being an admirer.

However, the ex-Porto coach has ruled out any chance of him replacing Roberto Mancini.

“Me to Manchester City? That’s impossible,” Mourinho told Sky Sport Italia.

The two-time Champions League-winning coach also maintained that Real have no intention of letting go of their record signing Cristiano Ronaldo, despite AC Milan owner Silvio Berlusconi talking up the idea of having the Portugal international at San Siro.

“I’m not saying it’s impossible, because in football you never know, and Berlusconi can make a crazy offer,” Mourinho said.

“But it must be a true madness because Real Madrid don’t want to sell Cristiano Ronaldo.”
