Mourinho was quoted in the NOTW that he had no desire to sign "Hollywood stars", but he denied it was a dig at Beckham.
"David Beckham is someone I respect as a man and as a player," said Mourinho. "He is the captain of England and has been a European champion. I have never been critical of him and reports implying that are incorrect as I've never made comments about him."
In Sunday's News of the World, Mourinho was quoted as being critical of Real Madrid's desire to sign only big-name players:
"All you need is a strong group of players - you don't need a Hollywood star. What the devil is a Galactico anyway? The image comes from the social lives, and fame the players have achieved. It is those Galacticos that I distrust"
Kenyon and Abramovich have obviously told Mourinho he's coming then?
