PICS: Jose Mourinho makes his first appearance since Chelsea exit at a Championship game

Didn't see this one coming...

 Jose Mourinho has been spotted for the first time since his departure from Chelsea.

Having made clear in his recent statement that he didn’t intend to leave England, few would have expected him to pop up watching Brighton’s game with Middlesbrough at the Amex Stadium – yet there he was.

Pictured shortly before Chelsea announced Guud Hiddink would take charge of the club until the end of the season, Mourinho was seen watching the game with a friend.

Mourinho’s friend and former assistant, Aitor Karanka, is the Middlesbrough manager.
