Mourinho: Of course I’ll shake Guardiola’s hand

They have been the fiercest of foes but Jose Mourinho insists that he retains a cordial relationship with Pep Guardiola ahead of a first renewed meeting.

The pair will go head to head again on Monday as Manchester City and Manchester United take part in the International Champions Cup in Beijing.”To qualify the question I would use some impolite words,” Mourinho told reporters when asked if he’ll shake the Spaniard’s hand.

Of course I will shake his hand.”I don’t understand [asking Guardiola] that question and I don’t understand the question to myself.”We worked together at Barcelona and we worked against each other in Spain.”I don’t see any reason for that question.”
