Jose has been doing promo work for Russian ice hockey league KHL
Since leaving Manchester United, Jose Mourinho has taken a break from management. He joined Richard Keys and Andy Gray in the United Arab Emirates on BeIN Sport, sounding off about the Premier League, and revealing the true story behind the infamous laundry basket tale.
