I turned down big offer from China, says Jose Mourinho

Manchester United boss Jose Mourinho has revealed he turned down a “big offer” to go to China.

The 54-year-old did not specify which club made the approach, or the timing of the offer, but did say he would not criticise anyone for moving to the Chinese Super League.

Last week Mourinho raised doubts over Wayne Rooney’s future at Old Trafford by saying “the money is huge, the experience can also be interesting” amid reports of Far East interest in the striker.
