Chelsea boss Mourinho's adviser rubbishes claims over Man Utd job

Chelsea boss Jose Mourinho's adviser has rubbished claims in a new book about missing out on the Manchester United job.

In Prepare to Lose: the Mourinho Era, respected El Pais journalist Diego Torres claims Mourinho saw Sir Alex Ferguson as a friend and "felt betrayed" by the Scot when he was overlooked in the English champions' search for a new manager.

Mourinho's adviser, Eladio Parames, took to the Portuguese press to categorically deny the allegations.

"This story does not have any sense," he is quoted in O Jogo.

"It is completely false. It has no head or tail."
