Jose Mourinho doesn't think Manchester United will be his last stop.

The Portuguese gaffer is currently in his second season in charge of United following spells with Chelsea, Real Madrid, Inter Milan, and FC Porto.

He's already guided his current club to success on the continental stage - leading United to the Europa League title last term - but the 54-year-old, in an interview with French network TF1, said he's all but convinced he won't end his career at Old Trafford.

"The only thing I will say is that I am still a coach with concerns, with ambitions and with the desire to do new things," Mourinho said, as translated by ESPN FC.

"I am sure that I will not finish my career here (at Manchester United)."

Mourinho, whose reign at any single club has not lasted more than four years, also heaped praise on Paris Saint-Germain when asked why his son had attended a match to see the star-studded team instead of Manchester United over the weekend.

"My son, who lives in London, went to Paris to watch a Paris Saint-Germain match instead of Manchester," Mourinho said.

"Why Paris? Because they have something special. Magic, quality and youth. It is fantastic."

Mourinho's current contract is set to expire in 2019, but there have been reports he's eager to sign an extension.
