Former England star forced to seek legal advice after furious Jose Mourinho row went public

DANNY ROSE has revealed he sought legal advice after his infamous bust-up with Jose Mourinho went public without his knowledge.

Rose said he was not made aware that their row was being filmed until it was included in Tottenham’s Amazon Prime documentary.

The defender said he did not know that Mourinho had allowed cameras to be installed for the All or Nothing series in 2020.

Rose sought legal advice when he found out a recording existed six months later.

In the scene, Rose arrived in the then Spurs manager’s office to ask Mourinho what “his problem is”.

The Amazon clip showed the pair butt heads about Rose’s game time, before the Special One accused the former full-back of not showing up against Liverpool.

And in an appearance on former team-mate Kyle Walker’s BBC podcast, Rose explained that he was not informed until much later that their dispute was filmed.

Rose said: “So when Poch was there. There were no cameras in his office. He didn’t allow that.

“So when I’ve gone to knock on the door. I’m assuming there’s still no cameras in the office, but they’ve put one in now and I didn’t know that.

“This chat is in December. I’d gone on loan to Newcastle in January. I didn’t then get notified by one of the lads until May.

“Got this and they’re putting it in. So yeah, I wasn’t happy. I had to get legal advice.”

Rose, who won 29 England caps between 2016-19, never played for Tottenham again and subsequently loaned to Newcastle in January 2021.

Rose added: “I only worked under him for eight or 10 weeks. It wasn’t like there was a huge falling out or anything like that.

“I didn’t really have a relationship with him. It was just a normal player-manager relationship. ‘Hello. Good morning. How are you?’

“Well, obviously he came in and he had this approach of wanting to build with three centre backs and then having the right back as the outlet.

“And my game was more, you know, not more offensive but I enjoyed being offensive.

“His system was that the left sided player at the back four would be a centre back who’s not going to be adventurous and go forward.

“Already my days were numbered, you know, at the club when he wanted to adopt that approach.”

Rose could be heard accusing Mourinho of effectively playing favourites.

The documentary showed Rose saying: “You’re right and I respect what you say. But other people have been s**t in training, s**t in games but play every game and are in the squad every game.

“It’s not fair. The defence has kept two clean sheets, they play every game. It’s not fair.”

The final straw for the 30-year-old came when he was axed again for the 0-0 draw at Watford on January 18.

Rose turned up at the club’s Enfield training HQ the following morning to have it out with his gaffer.

He left at the end of the 2020-21 season after 14 years at the club and joined Watford, for whom he made nine appearances before agreeing to retire in 2022.
