Jose Mourinho says he hopes Manchester City are stripped of their Premier League titles, as it will mean he won the league with Manchester United and would earn a winners’ medal and a bonus from his former club.
City are currently embroiled in a legal battle with the Premier League over multiple alleged competition rules breaches between 2009 and 2018, all of which City strongly deny.
It has been suggested that City's many titles and trophies won during the nine years the alleged offences took place are not in danger of being taken away, but - if found guilty - City could face demotion down the English football pyramid.
City beat United to the Premier League title in the 2017-18 season, becoming the first team to earn 100 points as their cross-city rivals finished second.
Mourinho on Wednesday joked that he could be awarded another Premier League winners' medal - adding to the three won while Chelsea manager - should City be found guilty.
Mourinho, now manager of Fenerbahce, was talking to the media ahead of Thursday's Europa League clash with United.
"As you know, we won Europa League, we finished second in the Premier League," he told reporters.
"I think we still have a chance to win that league, maybe they punish Man City with points, we win that league. And then [United] have to pay me the bonus and give me the medal!"
