Mourinho not afraid after reported attack

Jose Mourinho says he is not concerned after a man reportedly tried to attack the Real Madrid coach with a knife last week on the day before his team's game at Deportivo La Coruna.

The Spanish radio channel Cadena Ser reports that a security guard was cut by a man with a knife at the regional airport when Madrid arrived.

Mourinho says it is a closed subject.

He says ''the airport was packed as usual, we had the normal protection, which isn't protection against aggression but rather the (fans') passion, and nothing happened.''
