Jose Mourinho has suggested his next role could be at Manchester United after insisting he's only looking for a tough job in a hard league.

The 53-year-old has been out of work since December following his departure from Chelsea. He's been linked with the job at United if Louis van Gaal leaves Old Trafford at the end of the season, and the Portuguese coach insists it's 'almost guaranteed' he'll return to football this summer.

Mourinho, who was speaking at a sponsorship event in Portugal on Friday, said: "I can almost guarantee you that I’ll be back working this summer. I’ve got good offers on the table.

"It’s a matter of thinking, to come to a good decision and finalising it. In the summer everyone will know what my next club will be.

"I’ll take my ideas to where they are wanted. I want to be at a place where I’m wanted. I want to work at a club with responsibility, in a hard league and where there are no easy objectives. That doesn't leave many options."
