Chelsea boss Jose Mourinho has categorically ruled out the prospect of a move to Manchester United while his successor at Real Madrid, Carlo Ancelotti, has distanced himself from a return to England.
Mourinho has often been linked with Old Trafford throughout his hugely successful career and was touted as a possible successor to Sir Alex Ferguson as the years wound down on the Scot's career.
Now there is a vacancy at United for the second time in 11 months, but Mourinho, who returned to Chelsea last summer after a near six-year absence, is adamant he is not a contender to succeed David Moyes.
"Of course not," Mourinho said.
"I don't know how can somebody think about it.
"I left Real Madrid to come specifically to Chelsea, I signed a four-year contract with Chelsea.
"I told Chelsea that they never have to worry about me because I don't want to leave. I stay here until the club wants me to stay.
"(No) job would move me from Chelsea."
Mourinho expressed regret at Moyes' departure earlier this week and has since spoken to the former Everton boss.
"I spoke with David privately and I don't have to share with you," Mourinho added.
