“If it’s not possible, then, in this case, that responsibility passes to the English FA. We must communicate to them when we send the registration forms that there is an outstanding ban. “When we send the transfer forms, we will send all our information on the manager with the registration documents to the English FA and likewise to FIFA.” A statement from FIFA read: “Should Jose Mourinho leave Spain and work as a coach in another association, the two-match suspension that was imposed following his expulsion from a match of the Copa del Rey would have to be carried over to and consequently served in the competition of the same category organised by the new association.” An FA spokesman said: “Our domestic sanctions for players and managers are for the league and cup. We do not have competition bans.” That might help. http://www.mirror.co.uk/sport/football/news/chelsea-jose-mourinhos-touchline-ban-1910964 If he is banned, it'll be for our Copa Del Rey equivalent.
