FA not pursuing Mourinho for England job

The Football Association intend to narrow their selection options down to one man before they eventually make a move to secure Fabio Capello’s successor – and it won’t be Jose Mourinho.

In addition to suggestions that a short-list would be drawn up next week by the four-man Club England board charged with finding a replacement for the £6m-a-year Italian, it has been suggested there are just two names in the frame.
