Chelsea boss Jose Mourinho's feud with French TV ongoing?

Chelsea manager Jose Mourinho is reportedly refusing to budge on his stance of not speaking to French television network Canal+.

The Portuguese coach has not spoken to the broadcasters ever since they published what Mourinho deemed to be a private conversation about striker Samuel Eto'o.

The issue could be reignited next month when the Blues take on Paris Saint-Germain over two legs in the quarter-finals of the Champions League.

According to the Daily Mail, while managers are in danger of being fined by UEFA if they do not carry out pre- and post-match interviews, the European governing body have sympathy for Mourinho's stance.

Reports have claimed that any likely sanction will be lenient due to the circumstances.
