‘Mourinho told me I saved more with one arm than Casillas with two’ – Julio Cesar

The Portuguese had a thorny relationship with the iconic Spanish goalkeeper, and the former Brazil ace has revealed just how deep the discord was

Former goalkeeper Julio Cesar has revealed Jose Mourinho told him that he saved more with one arm than Iker Casillas could with two.

Manchester United manager Mourinho previously coached both goalkeepers, overseeing the Brazilian at Inter and the Spaniard at Real Madrid.

He had a notoriously acrimonious relationship with Casillas, notably relegating him to the bench at the Bernabeu, and Julio Cesar has lifted the lid on an incident following the 2013 Confederations Cup.
