Inter Milan coach Jose Mourinho said yesterday that he was once offered the England manager job but had turned it down.

Speaking ahead of his team's Champions League clash against Chelsea tonight, Mourinho was asked about John Terry being removed from the England captaincy but then went on to reveal other information.

"I'm not England manager so I don't want to comment on Terry just as I'm not the Chelsea president so I don't comment on (Roman) Abramovich's decisions," he said.

"I could have been England manager but I didn't want to, I have no chance of owning Chelsea, though.
"When England came looking for me I was the proudest coach in the world.
