Paris Saint-Germain's Thiago Motta has said that Real Madrid boss Jose Mourinho is the best coach that he has ever worked with.

Motta, who has also starred for former Barcelona manager Frank Rijkaard and now Carlo Ancelotti, was a part of the 2010 treble-winning Internazionale side which triumphed under Mourinho in Serie A, the Coppa Italia and the Champions League.

"Mourinho is the strongest coach I have known," he told Le Parisien. "He has been fabulous.

"I worked with Rijkaard in Barcelona, Mourinho at Inter and now I work with Ancelotti.

"Honestly, I could not have dreamed of all this. I'm an incredibly lucky guy in football."

Motta arrived in Paris this winter after spending three seasons with the Milan outfit.
