Real Madrid boss Jose Mourinho hopes Sir Alex Ferguson is still in the Manchester United hotseat when he eventually returns to English football.
Scrutiny
Mourinho admits he hates the public scrutiny which comes with fame, having seen his 12-year-old son abused while playing football.
He said: "If I could be a manager, a football manager, and the moment I leave the club or the moment the match finished, if I could switch off a light and become a person that nobody knows, I would do it.
"Because I hate my social life. I hate my social life. I hate not to be a normal father who goes with his son to the son's football match and being there with the other 20 fathers watching the match.
"I am in a football match of kids 10-12 years old and I have to be there, the people have to come for photos, the people have to come for autographs, the people have to come to insult me, the people have to go behind the goal of my kid and insult my kid of 12 years old.
"I would love to be with my family in the street as a normal person and I can't, so I am a completely different person in my private life."
