Will AS Roma coach Jose Mourinho, the ‘issue maker in the managerial world’, return to the English Premier League (PL) stage again?
Mourinho with fancy modifiers such as ‘Special One’ and ‘Normal One’ started with Benfica (Portugal) in 2000, then UD Leyla, FC Porto (Portugal), Chelsea (England), Inter Milan (Italy), Real Madrid ( Spain), Manchester United, and Tottenham Hotspur (above England) took the helm.
Mourinho, who leads AS Roma (Italy) after resigning midway from Tottenham in 2021, is still a hot topic. He recently drew attention by confessing, “I was trying to recruit Kim Min-jae during Tottenham days” ahead of the match against Napoli.
Roma are in 3rd place with 40 points from 21 games played. There is a possibility of seeing Mourinho in the European Football Federation Champions League (UCL) next season if he only finishes within 4th place. It is interesting to see Mourinho, the master of haggling, at the Feast of the Stars.
However, there is a possibility that the affiliation may change depending on the situation. The British popular magazine ‘Daily Mail’ said on the 9th (Korean time), ‘Chelsea, which Mourinho experienced, is aiming to sign again. If he takes the baton, he’s third in command,’ he said.
Mourinho took charge of Chelsea in the summer of 2004. He showed leadership in leading the Premier League title with 95 points, the most at the time of the 2004-05 season. In the 2005-06 season, he boarded on the way to the great general with two consecutive summit conquests. He left many honors, including winning the League Cup and the FA Cup. 메이저사이트
Currently, Rome led the championship of the Europa Conference League (UECL), one of the European club competitions last season. UCL, Europa League (UEL), and UECL all became special leaders who experienced the summit.
His career path is foggy. He had a chance to coach his native Portugal national team under Fernando Santos, but it was virtually eliminated. If Roma advances to the UCL, there is a possibility of remaining, but they are walking an unknown path as the difference between Lazio, Atalanta and AC Milan is only one point. His contract with Roma expires in the summer of 2024.
Mourinho is eager to return to England next season. He feels ideal about taking his third helm at Chelsea. His wife and children still reside in London. Mourinho said that he enjoyed his managerial life in the PL more than in other countries, saying that his transfer is likely.
Chelsea are slipping to ninth, despite Graham Porter taking the helm after the sacking of Thomas Tuchel. It is 10 points ahead of Newcastle United in 4th place, the UCL Maginot Line. If Mourinho chooses to go to Chelsea, his attention is expected to be much higher as it will lead to the revival of interesting relationships with Manchester United, Arsenal and Tottenham.
