“Never say no” – Jose Mourinho doesn’t rule out return to former league

Jose Mourinho is one of the big names currently in the managerial market and the legendary Portuguese coach has stated that he wants to return to work this summer.

Roma sacked the 61-year-old in January after a poor start to their season and the Portuguese boss has been linked to roles at Chelsea and Bayern Munich ever since.

The Chelsea job is very unlikely as the 61-year-old will not be a top candidate for a third stint at Stamford Bridge, despite fans of the club singing his name in recent weeks as the pressure on Mauricio Pochettino grows.

If the Blues are to part ways with the Argentine coach, they will likely go down the path of a younger, more progressive manager as that falls in line with the squad they are trying to build in West London.

Options such as Saudi Arabia and maybe even Newcastle could be on the table for Mourinho, while the Portuguese coach has not ruled out a return to his homeland.
