21.12.2015 18:00
The Portuguese manager was sacked on Thursday afternoon following Chelsea's disastrous start to the season which has left them just one point above the relegation zone.
His departure came just seven months after leading the Blues to a first Premier League title since 2010 and his Los Angeles-based agents CAA revealed that this was the first time he had been asked to leave a club against his wishes.
And they said Mourinho would look to immediately return to the game as he is not tired, although he will not attend any high-profile matches to avoid speculation.
The statement by a CAA spokesman said: "José Mourinho is pleased that he returned to Chelsea Football Club because he was able to give the fans another Premier League title, which they had not won for many years.
"He is immensely proud of his eight trophies at Chelsea, and thanks the fans for all their support throughout his two spells at the club.
"During his career, José has sometimes chosen to leave a club, but only at Chelsea has the club decided that he should leave.
"Each time represents for him the end of a cycle, and the opportunity to start a new one. José hopes that his future after Chelsea this time will be as successful as when he left the club in 2007.
"He will not be taking a sabbatical, he isn’t tired, he doesn’t need it, he is very positive, and is already looking forward.
