Benfica manager, Jose Mourinho, has revealed that he turned down the chance to discuss a new contract with the club this week.
According to Mourinho, the fresh terms were put on the table this week.
However, the 63-year-old has claimed it is the wrong time to negotiate with the Portuguese club.
Mourinho, who is expected to leave for Real Madrid in the summer, has now said he will make a definitive decision next week.
He told reporters: “Yes, on Wednesday I received a contract extension offer from Benfica.
“The offer was given to my agent, but I didn’t want to see it, find out about it or consider it.
“I’ll only do that from Sunday onwards; I’d say on Sunday.”
There will be Champions League football on the line when Benfica face Estoril this weekend.
