‘Living in Manchester has been a disaster’, reveals Jose Mourinho

Manchester United manager Jose Mourinho has described his current living arrangements in Manchester as "a disaster", saying he is finding it hard to adjust to living away from his family for the first time.

The 53-year-old has been staying at the Lowry Hotel in the centre of town since starting work at Old Trafford in July, with his wife and two children residing in the family's London home.

The former Chelsea boss is unable to leave the hotel without the paparazzi following his every move, and Mourinho admits it is not the ideal set-up.
