Mourinho was talking to the media ahead of Manchester United's clash with Liverpool on Sunday.
But he was disturbed by a phone ringing on his desk and decided to pick it up.
But he took it in good humour and passed the phone on to the reporter telling him it was "Abbie from talkSPORT".
The embarrassed reporter took the phone and hung up after muttering a few words down the line.

What was telling was how calm Mourinho was.
United have won nine games in a row and are closing in on a place in the top four.
They face Liverpool on Sunday at Old Trafford and are favourites having refound their mojo.
And Mourinho's temperament has improved after a disappointing start to life.
Where he was once spiky, he now appears serene and almost playful.
