Real Madrid manager Jose Mourinho has admitted that he would one day like to coach in Major League Soccer in the United States.

The Portuguese boss was speaking after his Spanish giants defeated Serie A outfit AC Milan 5-1 at the Yankee Stadium in New York last night.

"The quality of the game is good," the New York Times quotes Mourinho as saying.

"They have a positive approach to the game, they want to win, want to play well, want to express good qualities. Step by step it is coming, and one day I want to give a little bit of a help."

Real Madrid will begin the defence of their La Liga title against Valencia on August 18.
