Sardinian beauty could be the catalyst of Mou’s marital troubles

Last week, Portuguese daily newspaper Correio da Manhã broke the news that Jose Mourinho and his wife are to divorce after twenty years of marriage, following an alleged tryst with a mystery Italian woman.

The Portuguese (and the Spanish) are now suggesting that the homewrecking beauty is Elisabetta Cannalis, the outrageously attractive TV presenter who has previously enjoyed the romantic company of Didier Drogba, Parma’s Reginaldo and condom salesman Christian Vieri.

Last month, the former presenter of football show Controcampo and current face of Italy’s version of MTV TRL did nothing to quash the rumours during an interview:

“The one I really like is Mourinho.”

“I confess I’ve always admired him. I’d like to return to my work [on the television show] Controcampo and interview him along with other guests.”

It’s a sexy story, but it seems that Correio da Manhã actually have no real proof that The Special One has been boffing Elisabetta. This means the whole story could in fact be a thinly-veiled excuse to publish pictures of an under-dressed woman.

Non-ironic Spoiler bonus: More pictures of Elisabetta after the jump…
