Manchester United manager, with his family staying in their London house instead. Mourinho had moved his family back to England to take the Chelsea job in 2013, but the Blues sacked him late in 2015 freeing him up to take the United job.The Portuguese boss said: "They are at an age where they can't chase me like they did before.

So, for the first time, the family lives in a different way. We try to feel it, we try to see the evolution of our feelings and see how we cope with the situation."Tottenham Hotspur cult icon Mauricio Pochettino nearly returned to the club in 2021 after Mourinho was sacked by Spurs.

The Argentine was, at the time, Paris Saint-Germain manager but was under significant pressure - and his family still lived in London.Having spent five years in north London, Pochettino's family were, naturally, settled in the capital, and saw no reason to move out to Paris en masse - especially as he'd only signed a contract for an initial 18 months.Alas, a year later Pochettino was given the boot by the French champions and is expected to return to the Premier League whenever the right opportunity arises.Rafa Benitez made the surprising decision to leave England for China in 2018 after he was let go by Newcastle United, joining mega-rich Dalian Pro - and apparently becoming the third-highest-paid manager in world football in the process.

However, having enjoyed their time in England, his family chose to stay, with his two daughters completing degrees at universities around Liverpool.
