Jose Mourinho left Manchester and returned to his family in London. The 55-year-old coach completed his career marked by successes and failures at Manchester United club.
In his farewell letter J. Mourinho wrote that it was a great honor for him to work in this club and asked the media to leave him in peace at least until he returns to football.
"From the very first day, I was proud to wear the Manchester United club badge. I believe the United fans saw that," - explained the coach.
"Just like in my previous clubs, I also worked with amazing people here, and I believe some of them will remain my friends until the end of my life.
You all know my professional principles. Every time a certain career stage ends, I show the deepest respect and never comment on my former colleagues.
I hope that the media will also show respect and allow me to live a normal life until I return to football. Merry Christmas," J. Mourinho added.
J. Mourinho during his 2.5-year career at Man Utd club won three titles - the Europa League, the English League Cup, and the Community Shield.
