Personal Style: Jose Mourinho Talks On Football, Style and Fashion


 Before José Mourinho brought style and swagger to the world of football management, the leading men of the Premier League were limited to two looks: the knackered track suit from the kit manager's bag or the shapeless Ron Atkinson-style camel coat. In his tailored suit and Armani overcoat, Mourinho changed all that.   Arguably the best football manager of modern times - although Sir Alex Ferguson might disagree - Mourinho has gone from being Bobby Robson's translator to winning two Champions League titles with different clubs and league titles in three countries. But the day we met him at Real Madrid's training ground on transfer deadline day the topic of conversation wasn't football but his latest match - as the new global face of Braun.

When I was at Chelsea I met Giorgio Armani in Milan. I've always liked Armani, and I've always had a good relationship with the brand. I also like to wear Ermenegildo Zegna and Hugo Boss.

Wearing a suit as opposed to a tracksuit doesn't make you a better manager.

This season I'm going a different direction. I'm not going to wear a suit to the matches - I'm going very casual. When I started wearing a suit and a tie to games, not many others did, but certainly ten years later everybody does. So now I'm wearing casual trousers. I think that other people will follow.

Young players today are not very stylish. I have so many fights and laughs with the Madrid squad because these days, a manager has to adapt to the age group they are working with and it's a quality a manager should have. The managers are getting older, and the players are always young boys. So you can imagine Alex Ferguson, at 70, will think the kids are badly dressed. But they like to dress for the times.

I'd like to see the players dressed properly. That doesn't need to mean a suit and tie - it means not in shorts and a T-shirt on the day of the match, or leaving the stadium, or going into a press conference. I just use the word "properly" and I leave the space for them to understand what that is - it's their choice and their responsibility. The football stadium means work - it's not just a pitch.
