Jose Mourinho does not plan on being out of work for much longer and expects to be back in a job this summer.

The Portuguese left Manchester United in December and has not returned to management as yet, but he believes he will have a new club by June.

The 56-year-old has been very specific about when he plans to start work with a new team, but has not been so clear about which club he expects that to be.

Mourinho has stayed coy about where he would like to manage, not ruling out a league he knows well or a new venture for him.

When asked about managing in Frances Ligue 1, Mourinho told AFP: It is difficult to say. If I said no (I am not considering it), I would not be being honest with you.

If I say yes, you are going to start to speculate on the clubs that might interest me, who are going to have a free spot.
