Mourinho has been linked with Benfica.

But he says: "Don't ask me this question, I don't like it. First of all, in football I'm not moved by certain feelings. Secondly, I don't like talking about certain things if a particular club already has a coach.

"I have always stayed away from certain unethical behaviors and therefore certain questions ruin my weekend.

"In London," continues Mourinho, "I live two minutes from the Chelsea stadium, it's so close that you can hear the shouts when they score a goal. But since the crowd started chanting my name, I stopped going and I go to other stadiums, I don't go to Chelsea anymore.

"From my house here to the Da Luz stadium (Benfica's stadium) it takes 20 to 30 minutes, and I have friends with VIP boxes where I've been two or three times. Then they started asking me certain questions, and so I don't go anymore, they 'dirtied' my life."
