Jose Mourinho has admitted he is not thinking about gaining "revenge" against Manchester United should his Fenerbahce side face them in the Europa League semi-final.

Former United boss Mourinho is eyeing his FIFTH piece of major European silverware with Fenerbahce in round of 16 action against Rangers on Thursday night. Should Fenerbahce progress past the Scottish side, Mourinho could then be set for a tour of his ex-employers with Roma as their next opponents if they beat Athletic Bilbao.

Fenerbahce's route to May's final could see them face United in the last four at the end of April and start of May. Mourinho's Fenerbahce have already come against United once this season - a 1-1 draw in the league phase - but there is a chance they could meet again later in the competition.

Completing Mourinho's 'revenge' tour would be Tottenham if both teams get to the final. Although Mourinho could get the opportunity to get one over them, he doesn't see it like that and believes he remembers the good times instead, even if his time at United, especially, ended on a sour note.

Speaking in an exclusive interview with Sky Sports, Mourinho said: "In my mind, I never feel about revenge. I never have that feeling because when I leave a club, I prefer to remember my good times at the club."

Fenerbahce head coach Mourinho spent two-and-a-half years at United. He was appointed in May 2016 as Louis van Gaal's successor and enjoyed a fine debut campaign in Manchester. Although United finished sixth in the Premier League, they lost the joint-second fewest matches and won the Carabao Cup and the Europa League.

United didn't win a major piece of silverware in his second season, but it was arguably more successful. Mourinho guided United to a second-place finish in the Premier League - their highest finish post-Sir Alex Ferguson. It's an achievement that Mourinho said is 'one of the best' in his professional managerial career.

But following a disappointing start to the 2018/19 season, Mourinho was sacked and replaced by Ole Gunnar Solskjaer. During his time at Old Trafford, Mourinho won 84 of his 144 matches in charge.

Since Mourinho left United, there has been mixed success. Solskjaer guided United to a second-place finish in the Premier League and helped restore some pride in the team. Meanwhile, Erik ten Hag then came in and won trophies, and now Ruben Amorim is in charge, though he is enduring a tough time.

Off the pitch, there has also been change. Sir Jim Ratcliffe has stirred the pot since he arrived and acquired a 27.7 percent stake in United, announcing a number of redundancies in an attempt to cut costs.

Around 250 members of staff were made redundant last autumn in a bid to 'return the club to profitability', while 150-200 more job cuts are being planned.

"To be honest, I don't know much about what's happening," the Fenerbahce boss said. "I know Sir Jim Ratcliffe. I'm not saying we are big friends, but we have a good relationship. I know him well.

"He invited me to his house a couple of times. I see him as a good person and a great businessman. Of course, I feel for some of the people that I know [losing their jobs], but hopefully it goes in the right direction."
