Felix Mourinho, the boy's father, was the goalkeeper of the Portuguese national team, and when Jose turned sixteen, his father was the coach of the Vitoria club.

When Jose Mourinho was 23 years old, he studied at the Portuguese Institute of Sports, then went to Scotland to gain experience and get practice in coaching. In Scotland he made many acquaintances, and for good reason, this would come in handy in the future.

In 1997, Robson took the helm of "". It is clear that Jose Mourinho is going with him. That same year they took second place in the national championship and won the national cup. But the club's management was not satisfied with the missed opportunity to take the championship in La Liga; Bobby Robson was fired. Louis van Gaal was appointed instead and Jose had a new mentor. Over the next two seasons, Barcelona becomes the gold medalist of the championship. Then Robson is invited to Newcastle. Robson made an offer to Jose Mourinho to work together, but the Portuguese refused, believing that he would be better off with Van Gaal.
Soon Mourinho took the position of coach at Benfica, but after 3.5 months he was fired because he did not see eye to eye with the management. And the Portuguese becomes the coach of Leieria. This club has always been considered a weak team, but with the arrival of Jose Mourinho the team occupies fourth position in the championship. Which, in general, helped the bosses from the Porto club decide to invite the “special one” (as Mourinho called himself) to work with their team.
He signs a 3-year contract with Porto. During his stay in the “dragons” camp, he managed to win the UEFA Cup, the Champions League and all kinds of national titles. “Special” becomes the youngest coach to win the Champions League. At the end of the tournament, the owner of Chelsea, Roman Abramovich, makes an offer to the Portuguese to coach his team.

In 2008, the Portuguese came to Inter. In the same year he wins the Champions League with the Italians, and the next year he takes first place in the Italian championship, as well as the Italian Cup.
In 2010, "" shelled out good money for the Portuguese to coach the Madrid club. But since the agreement with Internazionale had not yet ended, his transfer was more expensive. He signs a four-year contract with Los Blancos. He is becoming so popular that a number of authors have written books about Jose, and Mourinho himself participated in the writing of one.

But the next season becomes a failure. Having played 16 matches, the team loses nine and takes sixteenth position in the standings. After which Jose Mourinho leaves Chelsea.
Nothing is known about the personal life of the famous trainer, since, despite his fame, he very carefully hides any personal aspects. The only thing that is known is that Mourinho has a happy and stable marriage with Matilda “Tami” Faria. They got married in 1989, but their relationship began in school. The couple has two children: Matilda (born in 1996) and Jose Mario Jr. (born in 2000). Pictured is Jose Mourinho with his wife Matilda

Men want to be him, women want to sleep with him - this slightly surprises Jose Mourinho, known as "The Special One".
He speaks five languages, has won seven titles, and is consistently included in lists of the most sexy men peace. He manages to look great even in a tracksuit.
Despite this, the 51-year-old Chelsea manager is genuinely oblivious to his somewhat dark, hidden charm and is fiercely devoted to his wife of 25 years, Matilda Faria. It's a pity.
"My wife believes me, my wife knows me," he says. “She’s been with me since she was 15 and I was 17—everything is very clear between us.”
"My public life does not exist separately from the family. I have professional work And family life. I'm not one of those guys who leads an active social life, and I'm very glad that I am who I am."
"The whole secret is love. If you are successful in football, it is because you love football."
"If you are successful in any job, it shows that you are in love with your job, if anyone has good family, it means the people in it love each other. Love is the foundation."
For such a busy, career-oriented man, father of two Jose Mourinho spends a lot of energy on his personal life. He says he's a romantic at heart and recently had his wife Tami's pet name tattooed on his wrist as a surprise for her birthday.
"I have a romantic belief that the people I love should know that I love them; and they certainly know and feel it," he explains. "My wife was the first to get a tattoo like this and challenged me in this way. At first I resisted because I always thought: “Brrr, it hurts and I don’t have to do it on my skin, and so on, and so on.”
"But her birthday came and I thought it might be good gift for her. So I got my wife's and my kids' names tattooed on my wrist, and it wasn't as painful as I thought it would be. It was simple."
He continues: "My ideal weekend is when I'm home with my family. It's rare and not the norm, so I like it. I can watch my son play football and then go out to dinner."
“My son and daughter are now at the age where they have their own lives. I can’t make decisions like five or six years ago. For example, take off immediately, get on a plane and go to Sardinia or the south of Portugal ".
Jose's confidence in success often leads him to be called the most ambitious coach in football. This state of affairs does not bother him, unless the interlocutor calls him arrogant upon personal acquaintance. This makes him very sad.
"If people think I'm an ambitious football coach, maybe they're not so wrong," he says. "These people do not know me personally, they are not my friends and they are not my family."
"But if suddenly one of my family members or my friend calls me arrogant or arrogant, I will be very upset. Because I am not an arrogant friend, husband or dad. I am very empathetic."
As we have already noted, Chelsea rarely has a free weekend, which allows Jose to attend the matches of his talented 15-year-old son (Jose Mario Mourinho Jr., obviously), who plays for his club Fulham.
"I haven't been able to get out to his matches, but I can this weekend, so I'll go."
He may be one of the best coaches of all time, but the ex-Real Madrid coach is no obsessive football dad.
“Never!” he says with a smile. "I'm the calmest dad in the group. I come and sit in my corner and don't make any comments or anything. I'm very quiet."
But this unusually frank and personal interview with the Chelsea manager got off to a rather pompous start.
First, I was confronted by a six-foot security guard who seemed convinced that I was hiding a Kalashnikov in my bag.
After a search, during which it turned out that I took with me practically a little more than one laptop: a voice recorder, plus mascara and lip gloss - well, after all, I went to an interview with Mourinho - I was admitted and awaiting an audience.
Jose and I were introduced to each other and taken to the locker room. He immediately sat down between the scattered sports kits and football pads, and I awkwardly sat down next to him. He was playing with his phone. I waited politely. Nobody said a word. The tension became palpable.
Jose is still clicking away on his phone and looks like he's more likely to have a dentist appointment than an interview with a journalist. I start talking to the crown of his signature silver hair.
My first three questions were met with monosyllabic grunts, although to be fair it sounds fascinating in his Mediterranean accent. And I caught myself thinking that I was communicating with him in unnaturally foreign-hybrid English, as if he were some kind of simpleton. It is not surprising that such attempts to get the interlocutor to talk failed.
Desperately trying to get out of my own way, I hear myself asking, what is his favorite food? "Meat". Does he cook? "No". Is your wife cooking? "Yes". For now, I have every chance of winning the anti-Pulitzer Prize.
But like his teams, Jose eventually warmed up a bit, becoming charming and controversial. I breathed a sigh of relief.
The dialogue began around our common hatred of the selfie, the modern autograph.
I asked if it annoys him when fans come up for photos. And I expected to hear the usually prepared “no” especially for the media, but instead he began to nod feverishly and muttered: “Yes, yes.”
“I always say yes to children, but to others, it depends on the situation,” he adds. “When I’m on my own, OK,” I understand that, as a rule, people are nice. But if you're eating in a restaurant and people stop you... it's not nice anymore."
"Or if you're trying to buy a pair of pants or a shirt and people interrupt you... they should just understand those things, but I know that's part of my job. If I say I like it, I'd be lying. But It’s part of my job, and we have to respect the job.”
The self-proclaimed Special One is also here as Yahoo's global ambassador. He had just finished judging the brand's #Special1 competition, finding 10 of the brightest young kids on the planet (including two Brits: 17-year-old Vlad Taraskin and 21-year-old Daniel Adjei) and giving them a 90-minute training session.
Jose can speak and teach others brilliantly now, although he was not a particularly gifted player himself, playing as a midfielder for a Portuguese second division club before retiring from football.
After studying sport as a science ( sports theory) and teaching physical education, he became the coach of the Vitoria de Setubal youth team and soon received his big chance, as a translator and assistant to Bobby Robson at Sporting Lisbon, Porto and then Barcelona.
In four years he won two Premier League titles and gained the support of both sides: players and fans. After winning several trophies in Italy and Spain, and wandering around other championships, Mourinho returned to Stamford Bridge last year.
Unperturbed, Jose insists that Tami is not a football widow.
However, he admits that match days can be very grueling: "I'm on my feet for the whole 90 minutes, walking, screaming, talking, analyzing."
To unwind, he sometimes watches TV series. He recently finished watching the latest episodes of the television series “24 Hours”. Much like main character series Jack Bauer, Jose is calm, cool and collected under pressure.
Just don't call him arrogant.
The future football player and mentor was born in the small Portuguese port town of Setubal, in 1963, on January 26th. Full name, given to the boy at birth, sounds like Jose Mario dos Santos Mourinho Felix. His father, Felix Mourinho, was also a professional football player and, at that time, he played as a goalkeeper in the local club Vitoria, and after completing professional career, got busy coaching activities. And my mother, Maria Julie Mourinho, worked as a school teacher.
Jose Mourinho as a child
It is worth noting that Jose’s relatives maternal line were very wealthy people, and his great-uncle was one of the main sponsors of the construction of the home stadium of the Vitoria club. Even as a child, at the insistence of his parents, Jose perfectly mastered the Spanish, English and Italian languages.
Boy with youth began to take a keen interest in football, and his father became his first mentor, and even then Felix was amazed at how quickly his heir grasped everything and how well he understood and felt the game. However, father and son were not able to spend much time together due to Felish’s constant training and travel.
For a long time, Jose played football at the amateur level; he studied at a football academy and gained some experience. However, he gave up football quite quickly and decided to retrain as a mentor.

In the mid-80s, the athlete decided to enroll at the Lisbon Institute of Physical Education, where he attended a Scottish Football Association course taught by coach Andy Roxburgh. When Father Jose needed help, the young athlete came to the Vitoria club as an assistant coach. In this position, his responsibilities included monitoring the games of opposing teams, as well as coaching. Thus began the coaching career of the “special one.”

Wife and children of Jose Mourinho
With my future wife The athlete met while he was at school. The girl's name was Matilda, she was a native of Angola, but in her youth she moved with her parents to Portugal. Their first meeting took place in the Portuguese town of Setubal, and became fateful for both. It was not just love at first sight, but a real, strong feeling that both were able to preserve and carry through the years. In 1989, the lovers officially legalized their relationship.
Jose Mourinho with his wife
Their first common child was born in 1996 - a girl whom the couple named Matilda in honor of her mother. In 2000, their son, Jose Mourinho Jr., was born. The boy decided to continue family tradition and also became a football player. And in 2014, he signed a student contract with the London club Fulham.
The heir to a football dynasty became a goalkeeper like his famous grandfather, and in last year Jose Jr. signed his first professional contract in his career with the same Fulham. However, the boy does not hide his sympathy for the Barcelona club and dreams of one day entering the field as part of it. The young man calls Lionel Messiah his idol.
Jose Mourinho Jr and Lionel Messi
The daughter of the famous coach, Matilda, according to some sources, is now preparing to enter the Camberwell University of the Arts. The girl is absorbed in her studies and quite rarely appears in public and communicates with the press.
Mourinho always described his family as “the center of his universe” and the greatest asset in the world. The coach believes that the most important thing in life is to be good husband and father. In 2005, the Portuguese was chosen as man of the year, and he was described as “a man of family and work.”
Jose Mourinho with his daughter
In public, Jose always actively gesticulates, clearly expresses his emotions, and never, as they say, puts his words into his pocket. For this reason, scandals always followed the mentor literally on his heels, both during matches and at press conferences. The temperamental Portuguese is not used to holding back his anger, and is not afraid of anyone. While he was in charge of Real Madrid, Jose even allowed himself to publicly criticize Ronaldo himself, being sure that he was not deservedly awarded the Ballon d'Or award. He also repeatedly allowed himself to sharply criticize the referees, for which he received disqualifications. However, despite everything, Mourinho is now one of the ten most outstanding football mentors in Europe. The mentor himself always had a high opinion of himself, and repeatedly in interviews told reporters the following words: “I am not ordinary, but special.”
