No one can't say that Chelsea boss Jose Mourinho doesn't attract his fair share of attention.

The former Inter, Real Madrid, and Porto manager is not one to shun the spotlight with his antics both on and off the pitch, especially during his numerous press conferences.

However, this is not something that the Portuguese coach would want his name to be associated with.

According to reports in Italy, the two-time Champions League winner now finds himself inevitably linked with a Mafia trial.

How? A couple of years ago, a member of the Camorra, Cesare Pagano, was accused and convicted of killing another man based on two witnesses' testimony, who claimed they had seen the crime on March 5th, 2006.

Well, they always do say a picture is worth a thousand words, and a photo has emerged of the controversial coach alongside these questionable characters in Spain on that very same day those witnesses claimed to have seen Pagano commit a murder.

"Shock photo of Chelsea's manager and players with the [mafia] boss Cesare Pagano, Rito Calzone, and Carmine Amato clears the accused [Pagano] of murder"

The significance of this is the fact that this photo is from Barcelona, hundreds of miles away from where the alleged murder took place on the same day...casting a shadow of reasonable doubt regarding who the witnesses actually saw.
