"I had national team opportunities before, but I always turned them down. I received an offer from England twice but I did not accept," Mourinho told HT Spor.

"It is not a job that will make me happy. One or two matches a month, traveling to watch players, waiting for tournaments... I have a lot of energy right now.

"Maybe one day when I'm old and tired, but not today."
