UK Back Pages: Mourinho Blasts FA Fine, Wenger Suggests Retirement Date

It's not every day that the back page of a major UK newspaper shows Jose Mourinho looking unimpressed while posing for a selfie in a book shop.

The Guardian also recount Jurgen Klopp's injury woes, but they lead with the news that UEFA will give Michel Platini its full backing in his quest to become FIFA president, despite the ongoing investigations looking into possible corruption:
