Mourinho accused of assault

INTER MILAN have denied allegations that coach Jose Mourinho assaulted a fan after Wednesday night’s Champions League tie against Manchester United at Old Trafford.

Police are investigating a claim that a fan was punched by the former Chelsea manager shortly after Inter crashed out of the Champions League.

An Inter statement said: “After the game, the Portuguese tactician gave interviews to the media, signed autographs, watched penalties of the Roma v Arsenal game before saluting Alex Ferguson in his office.
