Tottenham boss Mourinho: I could stay as long as Mauricio

New Tottenham boss Jose Mourinho insists he'd happily stay for five years or more.

He has never stayed at a club as the head coach or manager for more than the three years and almost four months he spent in his first spell at Chelsea from 2004.

"My last club in England, I would love that to be the case," said Mourinho. "I would love to stay for many years.

"I say many years but I know realistically how football is. If I could do a Mauricio for five-and-a-half years, it would be amazing.

"I would be 61 – and then 10 more years and maybe Vitoria Setubal in Portugal the last job."
