Mourinho to star as 'Special One' in cartoon series

Former Chelsea boss and current Real Madrid manager Jose Mourinho is set to star in his own cartoon series called “Mourinho & the Special Ones”, according to a report on the BBC. It will star himself as the “Special One”, the tag he used to describe himself in his first press conference as Chelsea manager. His character will help develop children as football players and human beings.

Mourinho won two Premier League titles, two League Cups and one FA Cup with London based club Chelsea apart from winning the Champions League with FC Porto and Inter Milan. The proposed cartoon featuring him will revolve around a football school, where youngsters will be coached by the 48-year-old. Mourinho is known for his outspoken character and has often courted controversy with what he says to the media before and after matches, holding no punches in his interviews. On Saturday night, his current club Real Madrid lost 3-1 at home to Barcelona, and are currently second in La Liga, equal on points with their rivals but with a game in hand.
