Inter Milan boss Mourinho trying to keep Champions League final out of mind

Inter Milan boss Jose Mourinho admits he's tried to avoid thinking about this week's Champions League final.

Mourinho has attempted to focus on today's clash with Siena.

He told uefa.com: "I cannot say I don't think about the Final, but I try not to think much about it.

"Bayern are already champions of Germany. We are not champions in Italy. We have one match to play, and this is a very important trophy for us.

"But you cannot forget about it, because we will be in Madrid to play a game that everybody wants to play, a game that especially this club wants very much to play, because for almost 50 years Inter have not been there.

"I think everybody must be together now. I think this is important, when you go to the big moments where it's very difficult.

"Everybody must trust everybody around them. We are living a crucial moment of the season, everything in two matches; we play for the two most important trophies, the championship and the Champions League."
