JOSE MOURINHO has been praised for his incredible punditry performance after stealing the show during coverage of the Champions League final.
The former Chelsea, Manchester United and Tottenham boss joined TNT Sports as Real Madrid beat Borussia Dortmund 2-0 at Wembley.
And fans are now calling for a broadcaster to make him a permanent fixture on screens after several hilarious moments and fascinating analysis.
Last night, he regularly left Rio Ferdinand in hysterics and left Laura Woods speechless after one “classy” gesture.
Fans loved Mourinho at his box office best – so here is a look at the Special One’s pundit of the match performance.
Any campaign to see Mourinho as a TNT Sports regular next season will not work as he has already agreed to take charge of Turkish giants Fenerbahce from next season.
Prior to kick-off, Ferdinand asked the Special One who is the most famous person in his phone book.
And before his move to Fenerbahce was officially announced, he went early and confirmed he was on his way to Istanbul.
Jose brilliantly replied: “In this moment it is the president of Fenerbahce.”
And Mourinho’s jokes didn’t stop there as he told Real Madrid hero Jude Bellingham it will be harder for them to win next year’s competition with Fenerbahce involved.
Five-time Champions League winner Gareth Bale briefly joined the pundits pitchside to discuss his former club Real’s greatness in Europe.
The retired Welshman, who is known for having a huge passion for golf, was then asked what it was like to play under the Special One at Tottenham.
Bale said: “I loved working with him.”
Only for his quick-witted ex-manager to hit back: “At that time he was already thinking about winning Augusta.”
His joke led to one fan, saying: “I feel like Jose should just do TV and forget Turkey.”
Borussia Dortmund boss Edin Terzic was left heartbroken after leading his boyhood club to collect their runners-up medals.
It led to Mourinho walking off set and going over to embrace Terzic – leaving Woods gushing.
She said: “We’ve lost Jose Mourinho, he’s marched onto the pitch.
“I tell you what he’s doing, he’s going over to see Edin Terzic and I imagine consoling him. This is a really lovely, classy moment between two managers.”
Jose later revealed what he said to Terzic, explaining: “I was telling him that time is not going to help you. — Sun.
