Jose Mourinho had several titles before his step up into football management. One of them was Bobby Robson’s translator at Barcelona. Now he is known as the ‘Special One’, European champion, and Real Madrid coach.<\/p>\n
He has come a long way since his early days at Camp Nou, and apart from a semi-final place, booked after beating Tottenham 1-0 in the Champions League quarter-final second-leg at White Hart Lane, Mourinho is also celebrating his 500th game as a professional coach.<\/p>\n
It all started at Benfica when he made his debut on September 23, 2000. Most of the last decade was spent boasting an unbeaten home record which stretched nine years, but was recently broken against Sporting Gijon.<\/p>\n
Still, after a brief spell at the Eagles, Mourinho enjoyed good spells at Uniao de Leiria, before guiding Porto to the Portuguese League, Cup and UEFA Cup in 2003.<\/p>\n
It followed with a Champions League in 2004 before he left for Chelsea where he won two titles. At Inter he scooped the league, the Supercoppa Italiana in his first season. He then won a treble league, cup and Champions League success last year before moving to Madrid where he hopes the hoard of trophies gets bigger.<\/p>\n
Ever the more hungry, he made clear 500 games is not special, as he targets 600.<\/p>\n
\u201cIt won\u2019t be that special an occasion to me, save for the fact it shows I\u2019ve been playing at the highest level for 10 years,\u201d Mourinho said as he reflected on his 500th game landmark. \u201cI would like to reach the 600 mark with Real Madrid.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cIn relation to my future, I think my future is Real Madrid because I have a contract and it looks like the club is happy with my work. My future will be England, yes, for sure but my future will be after Real Madrid and at this moment I have a contract for three more seasons.\u201d <\/p>\n<\/div>\n
