Jose Mourinho tipped for Bond villain role by Skyfall director Sam Mendes

Mourinho has a reputation for being one of football's most charismatic figures after a successful 30-year career in coaching. According to Mendes, the Portuguese's antics in press conferences have set him in good stead for one of Hollywood's biggest roles.
