POSTED ON November 22, 2023 •   Football      BY Lawrence Omoge

José Mourinho has said that he will join the Saudi Pro League "one day".

Jose Mourinho, the renowned football manager, has expressed his intention to manage in the Saudi Pro League in the future.

Mourinho, currently in charge of Roma, has hinted at the possibility of coaching in the financially-backed Saudi Pro League, stating,

"I think one day I will join the Saudi Pro League. I think I will go and coach there, yes"

Though Mourinho has stated his continued dedication to Roma, his contract with the club is up at the conclusion of the season, prompting questions about his future.

Since Mourinho's possible move to the Saudi Pro League would represent a major transition in his coaching career, the news has generated a lot of attention and discussion among football fans.

The arrival of several high-profile European players and coaches has piqued interest in the possibility of Mourinho taking over the Saudi Pro League.

Reports that Mourinho might receive a sizable contract offer from Saudi Arabia have fueled additional speculation about his future.

Mourinho's membership on the board of directors of the Mahd Sports Academy in Saudi Arabia also contributed to reports of a possible relocation to the Middle East.

It's still not clear exactly when this move happened, but it's definitely gotten a lot of attention and discussion in the football community.

The 60-year-old has also been linked with a return to Italy, with Roma and AC Milan apparently interested in hiring him.

The Portuguese tactician led Roma to their first European title in 2022 by winning the UEFA Europa Conference League.

Mourinho's future is unclear, but it appears likely that he will coach in Saudi Arabia at some point.
