Former Chelsea and Manchester United boss Jose Mourinho has been appointed as the manager of this shocking Premier League Club after being sacked by Roma
This upcoming weekend, Jose Mourinho will be traversing his way back to England, not as a manager but as a pundit for TNT Sports’ comprehensive coverage of the highly anticipated Champions League final. This return marks a significant shift since his departure from AS Roma, a prominent figure in Serie A, where he was relieved of his managerial duties in January. Despite guiding the team to victory in the UEFA Conference League during the 2021/22 season, Mourinho’s association with the club soured, leading to a mutual agreement to part ways.
Since his departure from Roma, Mourinho has been actively involved in football affairs in Saudi Arabia, with various teams in the region reportedly expressing interest in securing his services. The seasoned 61-year-old tactician has expressed his openness to exploring opportunities in the Middle East in the future. However, Mourinho has not entirely closed the door on a potential return to the Premier League. Reports suggest that he holds a keen interest in returning to Manchester, particularly to take the reins at Manchester United, a club he holds in high regard.
Furthermore, there have been speculative murmurs regarding a possible reunion between Mourinho and Chelsea for a third stint, although such notions appear far-fetched. Nonetheless, Mourinho’s wealth of experience and expertise will undoubtedly enrich the viewing experience for English football enthusiasts as he provides insightful commentary at Wembley Stadium this weekend.
In addition to his punditry duties, Mourinho’s former team, Real Madrid, whom he managed in the past, will be competing against Borussia Dortmund on Saturday night. The Spanish giants, widely regarded as favorites to clinch an unprecedented 15th Champions League title, approach the match with high expectations and aspirations of glory.
