Mourinho's success in Italy was marred by his controversies

Mourinho was at the peak of his career in Italy. His treble-winning season of 2009-10 at Inter Milan upgraded his image to that of a world-class manager.

But, Mourinho couldn't resist himself from controversies, even at such a glittering stage of his career.

The Portuguese manager frequently criticised the Italian football officials and started ignoring the questions put up by the Italian media.

Mourinho was fined € 35000 by the Italian Football Federation for criticising football officials and avoiding media appearances for three months.

Mourinho often used handcuffed expressions in the media and showed offensive expressions towards the referees, which instigated the Italian Football Federation to take this step.
