"Yes, I can deny that I had any meeting with the Portuguese Football Federation. I am a loyal person,” said Mourinho. 

"The only time I had direct contact with a club I informed Fenerbahce. It wasn't now, it was in January. I had a meeting with the unnamed club. I didn't accept the offer. But I informed my club even before the meeting.”
