The "Special One" Wants to Go Back
According to reports, Jose Mourinho is eager to make a comeback to Manchester United. The Portuguese manager, who was recently sacked by Roma, is said to have "unfinished business" with the Red Devils. Mourinho previously managed United between 2016 and 2018, leading them to a second-place finish in the Premier League during his tenure.
A Remarkable Career in Management
Mourinho, 61, has had an illustrious career in football management, winning 26 major trophies. He has successfully coached clubs such as Porto, Chelsea, Inter Milan, Real Madrid, and Tottenham. His achievements include winning the Europa League and Carabao Cup during his time at Manchester United.
Excitement Over New Investor
The Daily Mail reports that Mourinho is particularly enthusiastic about the prospect of working with Sir Jim Ratcliffe and Ineos, the new investors at Manchester United. The club's footballing operations will now be closely aligned with the manager, making a potential reunion with Mourinho even more enticing.
Challenges Ahead
While Mourinho's desire to return to Manchester United is apparent, it is unlikely to happen anytime soon. Bookmakers currently rate his chances of replacing Erik ten Hag in the dugout at 33/1. Ten Hag, the current manager of the Dutch club, has faced criticism due to their struggles in the league and early exits from the Champions League and Carabao Cup.
Other Potential Destinations
Since his departure from Roma, Mourinho has been linked with several other clubs. Barcelona is among the names mentioned, with Xavi expected to leave at the end of the season. Additionally, there have been rumors of an offer from Saudi outfit Al-Shabab, although Mourinho is said to have rejected it. Some speculate that Mourinho is also interested in the Portugal national team role, but he may wait until after the Euros to make any decisions.
Whether or not Mourinho's return to Manchester United materializes, his desire to be back in the spotlight is evident. Fans will undoubtedly be intrigued to see where the "Special One" ends up next in his ever-evolving managerial journey.
