Manchester United manager Jose Mourinho has insisted that he is "happy" living in a city centre hotel as he is 'too lazy' to consider moving into a house.
A national newspaper cited the 54-year-old's reluctance to move out of the Lowry Hotel in Manchester as one of the reasons why he is unhappy with life at Old Trafford.
Mourinho has responded to suggestions that he lacks commitment by pointing out that he finds it easier staying in a hotel, however, as his wife still lives in London.
"I am very lazy and because I like to arrive in the hotel, I don't want anyone to be worried because I live in a two square metres room," he told reporters.
"I am living in an apartment inside of a hotel where I have all the comfort, the support, where I have everything I want, like I am living in a house.
"So if they are worried about me being comfortable, happy and supported, I really am. That's the way I feel very comfortable. If they want me in some house that I don't like, in some place I don't like, lonely from my assistants, if they want that, I would be a sad guy and a sad guy doesn't work well."
Mourinho has had to respond to numerous questions regarding his long-term future at United this week, amid rumours that Paris Saint-Germain will make an approach in the summer.
