Following the defeat to Paris Saint-Germain, reports in Spain claim the pressure is building on Zidane following the shaky start to the season.
Mourinho has been without a job since leaving the Red Devils in December last year and has now been linked as a possible replacement for Zidane.
"There are two types of rumours. One, when one speaks about Zidane, who is one of ours and it hurts us when our teams aren't going well. You have to live with it," Mourinho told Deportes Cuatro.

I am out of it. I'm not just blowing smoke. I would like that things turn out well and everything gets fixed.
