A video shows her pursuing the tracksuited manager around the lobby while he does his best to ignore her.
The Portuguese boss, 54, had been going for a stroll ahead of Manchester United’s game against Russian CSKA, which ended up as a 4-1 win for the Premier League giants.
But after being hassled by Halilova, he changed his plans and went back to his room, leaving security guards to lecture and then evict the fans.
Halilova, who has met Mourinho before in her native city of Kazan, seemed annoyed at how she had been treated.
She said: "To be honest, I am not one of those women who runs after men.
"But today I was called mad and was told that I am disturbing everybody."

An anonymous user of a local internet forum added: "If men are scared of her like that, it is not a good sign."
