José Mário dos Santos Mourinho Félix GOIH (European Portuguese: [ʒuˈzɛ moˈɾiɲu] ; born 26 January 1963), is a Portuguese professional football manager and former player who was most recently head coach of Italian Serie A club Roma. Dubbed "The Special One" by the British media, Mourinho is one of the most decorated managers ever and is widely considered to be among the greatest managers of all time.After an uneventful career as a midfielder in the Portuguese leagues, playing most of the time in the reserves' non-league games while playing for Portuguese First Division clubs, and then in the Portuguese second and third divisions where he would end his playing career at 24, Mourinho moved into coaching, first as an interpreter for Bobby Robson at Sporting CP and Porto, before gaining success as an assistant at Barcelona under both Robson and his successor, Louis van Gaal. After brief stints at Benfica and União de Leiria, Mourinho returned to Porto as manager in 2002, winning the Primeira Liga twice, a Taça de Portugal, the UEFA Cup and the UEFA Champions League, Porto's first European Cup title since 1987.
