He says he wants to become a professional football manager in a few years. More like José Mourinho to be more specific.

Too far-fetched you might think? The former Bafana Bafana international and Orlando Pirates predator begs to differ.

He says he’s been studying Mourinho like a book. After all, it was Mourinho who unleashed the Cape Town-born striker into winning the 2004 Uefa Champions League after he had two unsuccessful seasons at Celta Vigo in Spain, having signed from Ajax Amsterdam.

In the two years he had spent under Mourinho at FC Porto, McCarthy said there was one special principle the “Special One” always implemented on his players - man-management skills. McCarthy says he hopes to implement it on his players once he gets his Pro Licence in the next two years.

“Being in Europe provided me with an opportunity to learn from some of the best coaches in the world and that’s what I believe will set me apart from the rest (former players who turned coaches). Mourinho is one of those I’ve been learning from,” McCarthy says.
