Prior to that, Mourinho introduced himself to the world stage by leading Porto to a historic Champions League win in 2004. He then joined Chelsea, where in as much as he won lots of trophies, he wasn't able to guide them to European success.

He then joined an exclusive list of managers to win the Champions League trophy with two different clubs when he guided Inter Milan to glory in 2010. His other European trophy came when he was in charge of Manchester United, where he won the Europa League in 2017.

The Portuguese manager announced his plan on his Instagram page.

This is my tattoo.
The joy of the Roman people led me to do it. Then I thought about something special, something that would honour all the clubs where I won European competitions. At the same time, I wanted a unique tattoo, one that, so far, I am the only one who can have it…
Alberto showed me some proposals, I just changed a few details. Here is my tattoo.

Jose Mourinho recounts how he was smuggled into the dressing room to deliver a team talk

Sports Brief had earlier reported that AS Roma boss Jose Mourinho has the penchant for pulling a stunt in the most extraordinary of circumstances, even when it breaks the law.

The 59-year-old former Chelsea, Real Madrid and Manchester United manager took a trip down memory lane to recount an incident during his first stint at Stamford Bridge.

Mourinho was slapped with a two-game ban by the European football governing body, UEFA, for accusing then-Barcelona coach Frank Rijkaard of visiting the referee's room during a round-of-16 tie between Chelsea and the La Liga giants in 2005.
