Roma's Francesco Totti: I would like to work with Real Madrid's Jose Mourinho

The 48-year-old coach managed 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 would be an enriching 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 he 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.
