Anzhi Makhachkala striker Samuel Eto'o has described Real Madrid coach Jose Mourinho as "larger than life".
The duo worked with each other at Inter Milan during the 2009-10 season that resulted in the Italian club winning Serie A, Coppa Italia and the Champions League.
"He was a great person and a great coach," Eto'o told RT. "I have never met such a character that is larger than life.
"That year we won almost everything and then we parted. It was tough to take."
Eto'o left Inter to join Anzhi in 2011.
