Former Manchester United manager Jose Mourinho reveals he's turned down three job offers

Jose Mourinho has been spotted back in west London - but this time at Fulham rather than his former club Chelsea.

The Portuguese enjoyed two spells shortly down the road at Stamford Bridge but as he ponders his next move in management took in the Cottagers' Premier League clash with Everton.

Mourinho was eventually sacked by Manchester United in December and has been linked with a number of clubs but is yet to decide on where he will make his return.

He says is ready to return to management and recently admitted he is open to an approach from the Bundesliga, a league in which he has as yet never worked.

With Bayern Munich coach Niko Kovac unlikely to be retained beyond the summer and the club ripe for an overhaul the country appears to offer him a new challenge, having won titles in Portugal, England, Italy and Spain.

"I would like to win a third Champions League with a third club and to win a fifth league in a fifth different country," Mourinho, who said he has turned down as many as four job offers since leaving Old Trafford, said at a coaching seminar back in his native Portugal.

"But I do not always have what I want and my ambitions are not limited to this."

Asked specifically about whether he would be receptive to an offer from Germany, Mourinho said: "It's a country I've never trained in. Why not? Let's see."
