Mourinho prefers Milan to Barca

Reports claim Chelsea's ex-coach Jose Mourinho is mulling over taking the managerial spot at AC Milan, despite Barcelona's inquiry.
Since his departure from Stamford Bridge in September, the Portuguese manager has maintained the desire to take over at one of Europe's top soccer clubs.
Daily Sport has claimed that it is no secret that Milan is keen on luring Mourinho and Chelsea striker Didier Drogba to San Siro in the summer.
This is while As reports, despite the previous announcement by Barca president Joan Laporta that coach Frank Rijkaard has a secure job at Nou Camp, Barcelona has inquired about Mourinho's future.
Rijkaard has been under pressure to revive the Catalan giants by restoring the team's well-known performance.
However, the Dutchman's squad has struggled to keep up with La Liga leader Real Madrid, which stands seven points ahead of Barcelona.
As speculation continues over the Portuguese coach's future, Mourinho is reportedly taking his time to choose a club from a wide list of world-class ones.
