Jose Mourinho is set to make a sensational return to the Italian Serie A ahead of the 2021-22 season.
The Portuguese tactician, who boasts 25 major trophies in his cabinet so far, will be returning to the league where he enjoyed incredible success, including an unprecedented treble.
The former FC Porto, Chelsea, Inter, Real Madrid, Manchester United and Tottenham Hotspur coach has accepted a three-year contract and will succeed Paulo Fonseca after the season.
Mourinho has said he desires to ‘create a winning project’ at Roma and decided to be a part of the Giallorossi because of ‘the incredible passion of the fans’.
In his words, “After meetings with the ownership and Tiago Pinto, I immediately understood the full extent of their ambitions for AS Roma. It is the same ambition and drive that has always motivated me, and together we want to build a winning project over the upcoming years.
