The 49-year-old tactician revealed he should be called the "Only One" considering the long list of title he has won during his managerial career to date
Speaking to Portuguese television channel SIC on Monday, Mourinho explained that as his managerial career has progressed, he has become less selfish and less focused on individual goals.
"Things have been going well for me, thank God,| he told the station. "I am focused on others much more these days. The pleasure of winning with Inter Milan was seeing a club, which had not won for 50 years, winning again.
"That is what entices me more and more, instead of pursuing individual goals."
Mourinho won La Liga last season with current club Real Madrid, he won Serie A twice with Inter, the Premier League twice with Chelsea and the Portuguese Liga twice with Porto. On top of all that, he also won the Champions League with both Porto and Inter.
"Like me or not, I am the only one who won the world's three most important leagues. So, maybe instead of the 'Special One', people should start calling me the 'Only One'," Mourinho said in the interview that aired on Monday.
The Real Madrid boss was nicknamed “The Special One” during his time in England after calling himself just that during a press conference following his switch from Porto to the Blues in 2004.
Real Madrid kicks off the new campaign with a clash with arch rival Barcelona in the Spanish Super Cup on Aug. 25.
