Jose Mourinho sees funny side after being hoodwinked by two comedians into signing Manchester United shirt with Antonio Conte 1 on the back

Manchester United boss Jose Mourinho was all smiles after being caught out by two Italian comedians on Wednesday.

The Portuguese may have been preoccupied with the ongoing transfer saga with Alexis Sanchez or his own contract talks when he was approached by the two men outside The Lowry Hotel.

Alessandro Onnis and Stefano Corti, presenters of the Italia 1 satirical show Le Iene, were keen to speak to Mourinho about his feud with Chelsea's Italian manager Antonio Conte.

Conte had labelled Mourinho 'senile' and a 'little man' after the Red Devils boss suggested some managers behave like 'clowns' on the sideline.
