Chelsea manager Jose Mourinho has claimed that the 2012 vote for FIFA coach of the year was fixed.

As corruption revelations enveloping FIFA continue to emerge, Mourinho claims that the decision to award the prize to Vicente del Bosque, who won Euro2012 with Spain, over him was dubious.

The former Real Madrid manager told the Sunday Times: "In 2012, I was one of the three finalists and when I was told I was finishing second with a few votes behind the first, it looked normal to me.

"But then the votes were made public. And my former player, a national team captain, called me, 'Mister, there is something wrong. Because obviously, obviously, I gave you the vote, then in the list they put another coach's name and that was not me'.

"A few minutes later my Portuguese friend, a national team coach, called me, 'Mister, don't believe what you see in the list because obviously I vote for you'.

"And a few minutes later I got a message from another national coach, 'they changed my vote'.

"Who changed the vote? His federation? Fifa? Who?"
