When and how Mourinho left: The manager departed for Chelsea just a couple of days after guiding Porto to a domestic league and Champions League double, a year after claiming the UEFA Cup.
What he achieved in his home country is perhaps his greatest accomplishment – it was the first time in 11 years that a club from outside the ‘big four’ nations had won the Champions League, and it was certainly not a remarkable side.
Despite the success he brought, Mourinho’s Porto exit become acrimonious. The club’s president Pinto da Costa resented the fact that his coach had met with Chelsea owner Roman Abramovich and Peter Kenyon in Portugal without informing Porto. His refusal to celebrate the Champions League triumph with his players also grated and led Da Costa to describe the parting as ‘hasty, abrupt and bizarre’.
