The Netflix doc series about legendary football manager Jose Mourinho will launch globally on August 11.

In a teaser trailer released today, the same day he begins a second spell as Real Madrid coach, the Portuguese star seen in typically boastful action as he looks through his personal trophy room. He throws on a contented smile as she shows the camera crew a replica Premier League trophy, signed boots from Argentina legend Diego Maradona and Cristiano Ronaldo’s first professional shirt.

“I started winning in 2003, and my last title was 2022,” he says. “So it was 20 years winning. That why you want to tell my story. You don’t do a documentary with a guy that wins nothing.”

However, he’s keen to play down the ‘Special One’ moniker he gave himself in 2004 upon joining Chelsea from European champions FC Porto. “It’s not like I come here and I think I’m special,” he tells the camera crew. “‘The Special One’ is some special shit some guys in England found for me.”

At this point, the interviewer responds, “I love that you’re saying that whilst there’s a mural of yourself behind you,” as Mourinho turns in surprise.

Filmed over two years, Mourinho will explore the manager’s rise to success, which saw him win the Champions League with Porto before upending English football by winning two Premier Leagues with Chelsea and later joining Inter Milan in Italy, where he won a second Champions League.

His spell at Spain’s Real Madrid, where his Ronaldo-led team battled Lionel Messi’s Barcelona, saw him win a league title before rejoining Chelsea and achieving another title win. He also managed Manchester United, Tottenham Hotspur and Roma to different degrees of success and then led Turkey Fenerbahçe and Portugal’s Benfice before today being reappointed Real Madrid manager.

The doc follows on from Netflix’s Untold sports docs strand, which has covered the liked of footballer-turned-Hollywood actor Vinnie Jones and Leicester City striker Jamie vardy.

It features interviews with football stars such as André Villas-Boas, Claude Makelele, Didier Drogba, Eden Hazard, Frank Lampard, Iker Casillas, Javier Zanetti, John Terry, Luis Figo, Marcelo, Marco Materazzi, Massimo Moratti, Petr Čech, Peter Kenyon, Ricardo Carvalho, Rui Faria, Sami Khedira, Samuel Eto’o, Alex Ferguson and Zlatan Ibrahimović.

Ventureland is the producer, with John Battsek (Beckham) and Miles Coleman (99) the producers. Joe Pearlman (Lewis Capaldi: How I’m Feeling Now, Bros: After The Screaming Stops) is the director.
