Argentina coach Diego Maradona praised Inter Milan manager Jose' Mourinho on his return home from a European tour.
The Argentina legend said he had ''heard a lot'' about Mourinho before his visit to Milan last week and he had a ''great surprise'' when he met the Portuguese ex-Chelsea coach.
''He is an exceptional person, a real worker. We talked about tactics and the characteristics of the players he has coached,'' said the former Napoli star.
''Now I have a reference point as a coach,'' Maradona said.
