Mourinho bumps into former player Michael in London

There was a moment of Chelsea nostalgia on Sunday morning as Michael Ballack and and Jose Mourinho crossed paths in London.

Ballack took to Instagram to share a photo of himself and his former manager smiling in Belgravia, along with the caption 'nice Sunday morning in London.'

The pair looked in good spirits following what was a disappointing day for their old team as they lost to Arsenal in the FA Cup final. 

Mourinho coached Ballack in his final season during his first stint with the Blues back in 2007.

Together they won the FA Cup before the Portuguese left and joined Inter Milan at the beginning of the next campaign. 

Ballack would go on to spend two more seasons at Stamford Bridge, winning the Premier League and another FA Cup before rejoining Bayer Leverkusen. 

Mourinho is currently plotting a summer spending spree with Manchester United, and Antoine Griezmann remains high on his wishlist.

However, he is determined to take a break from his day job for a short period of time after a hectic first season at Old Trafford.

‘As I promised after the final, I don’t care about football for a month. You have to ask Ed Woodward (United vice-chairman) about signings. He’s known since March who I want,' Mourinho said when quizzed on United's chances of signing Griezmann.

‘Now is for him to work because he will have holidays in August and in August I’ll be working.’
