Confirmations are also coming from The Times regarding the Special One’s intention to restart in Serie A.
The rumor reported first by Sport Mediaset is also confirmed in England. Josรฉ Mourinho, as reported by The Times, does not want to leave Italy and has offered to coach Napoli in the upcoming season. The ‘Special One‘ will meet with president Aurelio De Laurentiis next week after the team’s return from Saudi Arabia. For this reason, Mou is still in Italy awaiting the summit and has put the Arabian sirens on hold.
After the traumatic dismissal by Roma, Mourinho is already thinking about the future. The next one will not be in Saudi Arabia, as the Portuguese coach has listened to and declined the offer from Al-Shabab. Over there, the doors will always be open for someone like him, but the Special One still feels like a winning and top-level coach, and before leaving Europe, he will think a million times.
After Inter and Roma, Napoli could be his third Italian team. Despite the great effort, the relationship with Walter Mazzarri will end in June as per the contract. De Laurentiis wants a coach of great caliber, and Mourinho fits the profile perfectly.
The main issue to resolve is the salary: the โฌ7 million received by Roma are beyond the parameters for the Azzurri. There is also some skepticism about the possible relationship with De Laurentiis: two strong and overflowing personalities like theirs can either be a winning mix or clash until an explosion.”
