Fan tries to stab Jose Mourinho

A fan tried to stab Real Madrid coach Jose Mourinho at a north-western Spanish airport but ended up injuring his bodyguard instead.

According to Spain's El Mundo newspaper, the attacker had targeted the Portuguese coach at the A Coruna Airport when Mourinho was signing autographs last Friday.

The bodyguard only became aware of the four-inch stab wound when he boarded the bus.

Real Madrid has since beefed up security for the former Chelsea boss.
