Manchester City defender Maicon and his former Inter boss Jose Mourinho have been caught on camera mocking Rafa Benítez and his move to Chelsea.

The pair spoke in the aftermath of Real Madrid’s 1-1 draw with Manchester City in the Champions League on Wednesday.

The Portuguese coach and Benitez had a poor relationship when the Blancos coach was at Chelsea and the Spaniard was in charge of Liverpool.

Maicon and Mourinho shared a joke at Benitez’s expense upon hearing the breaking news at Stamford Bridge after the game.

“Your friend Benitez is going to Chelsea,” the Brazilian said to Mourinho, according to La Sexta.

The 49-year-old responded: “The fat one? Well then Materazzi should be his assistant.”

The joke refers to the fact Materazzi had been made to tear down newspaper cuttings from his locker of victories with Mourinho and Marcello Lippi by Benitez when he joined Inter in 2010.
