Jose Mourinho claims that Man Utd player wanted to snub the team bus for Rolls Royce

Jose Mourinho criticized one of his former players for attempting to attack the Manchester United bus in his Rolls Royce.

Speaking at a coaching forum in Portugal, Mourinho recalled a story that would have been centered around Paul Pogba after a game in Burnley in September.

Mourinho had strained relations with the winner of the French World Cup at Old Trafford before being sacked in December.

He described the midfielder as "His Excellency" and revealed how upset he was after being offered a solution allowing his driver to catch up with the bus from the team.

Mourinho said: "We would play against a team located 30 km from Manchester and a player m asked if after the match he could return to Manchester without the team and leave alone.

"I told him: 'If we went to London and wanted to stay there, it would be one thing, but it's close, it makes no sense.'

"The guy was upset, but then we won the match and he asked me again because I was happy, I gave it a little bit and I said: do not leave the bus and ask your driver to join you 10 minutes later. from the stadium, so go as you want. "

"And this guy in the locker room was still not happy, I attended the press conference and when I arrived at the team bus, parked next door, it was a Rolls-Royce with his driver.

"After all, the car was new and His Excellency would like to leave the stadium with his Rolls-Royce.

"Now, how do we deal with this, do you (tell him) never take part in the Rolls, can you go when I'm happy, or do you solve this thing in any other way that would allow me to" go on vacation? "."

Mourinho also touted Germany as a possible destination for his return to management during his speech at the event in Portimao.

"I would like to try to win a third Champions League with a third club and win a fifth league in a different fifth country."

"But I do not always have what I want. Germany? It is a country in which I have never been formed. Why not? Let's see…

"I decided not to coach before the start of next season and my return to the bench must be in a club and in a league that motivates me.

"I'm not sad not to coach at the moment, but honestly, I want to get back into the preseason ahead."
