JOSE MOURINHO has dropped the biggest hint yet that he will return to the Premier League this summer � but NOT to take charge of Manchester United.
The Special One, who faces United tonight, said: �After Real Madrid, I�d like to manage in England. I love everything about England. You will see when that will be.
�Normally it will be my next step.�
But Mourinho reckons the United job is out of reach, with Alex Ferguson, 71, still going strong.
Mourinho, 50, added: �I don�t think I will succeed Sir Alex.
�I think we will finish our careers more or less at the same time. He will be 90 and I will be 70.�
United visit the Bernabeu this evening in the glamour tie of the first knockout round of the Champions League.
Mourinho, widely expected to leave Madrid in the summer, added: �Real have won this trophy nine times and I have won it twice. We are both privileged. �I want this to be a great spectacle and I hope United do, too.
�For sure, it�s the match of this round of the Champions League. It�s the most important one. Everybody is waiting for this match.
�If I know the culture of English football and a manager like Sir Alex, I don�t think they are thinking of playing anything other than a big match.�
Mourinho also claimed Real forward and former United star Cristiano Ronaldo is the greatest player he has ever worked with.
The Portuguese boss added: �Cristiano is the most fantastic player I�ve had. He�s at a higher footballing level. He�s out of this world.�
