New Tottenham boss Jose Mourinho has revealed Manchester United's executive vice-chairman Ed Woodward was one of the first people to call him after his appointment was confirmed.
Mourinho was sacked by Woodward 11 months ago as United manager.
Mourinho told Sky Sports: "Maybe I get the opportunity to apologise for not answering 500 (phone calls) of them that I couldn't answer. I have 700 but only had time to answer 200.
"But it was curious to see, from my last club, so many people showing me that respect, empathy and feeling. It was nice.
"All of them were special. The first one was from (United managing director) Richard Arnold. The third, fourth or fifth was Ed Woodward. And they were my bosses."
