"I would like to go to the places where there is passion and here in Mexico there is great passion for soccer, but it is not yet the time because I am still strong and young for the high competitiveness of Europe. Maybe two years more and I might think about other alternatives," he said on Thursday.
"I like the examples of Mexican football in Europe, despite there is not much of it. But I know about the great teams in Mexico, it is a very technical style and very attractive," Mourinho added.
Mourinho referred to Mexican player Raul Jimenez. "He is playing in my country (Portugal), I think he is fabulous, he has done a great job and he is becoming outstanding."
The Portuguese coach led the Legend's' Team on Wednesday. He said these activities helped to show a different vision of FIFA. "I love to participate in these events, especially now that FIFA is in another stage," he said.
