Roma's Totti would have liked to play for Jose Mourinho

Roma captain Francesco Totti has confessed that he would like to play under Real Madrid coach Jose Mourinho.

The 48-year-old trainer plied his trade in the Serie A from 2008 to 2010 as he guided Inter to two league titles and one Champions League crown.

Totti said he is well familiar with Mourinho's work and believes that working with the Portuguese coach would be a fantastic experience.

"I would like to work with him," he told Sky Sport Italia in an interview which will be aired on Christmas Day. "I know players who have worked with him and they told me is very professional.

"He is a coach one can learn a lot from."

Earlier in the month, Totti insisted he would not leave Roma despite previously admitting he considered leaving his hometown club.
