According to reports, former Chelsea and Tottenham manager Jose Mourinho has received an opportunity to work in Saudi Arabia.
Since leaving Roma in January, the former Manchester United manager has been unemployed; nevertheless, there are now rumours that suggest Mourinho may be about to return to professional football, but not as a manager.
Sportitalia reports that Al-Qadisiyah, a second-tier team, has approached the Portuguese head coach about taking on the role of technical director.

He will be expected to supervise all aspects of the Saudi club’s football activities in this capacity, from hiring managers to finding players.
