“Roma” team fans can quickly say goodbye to coach Jose Mourinho.

“La Corriere dello Sport” wrote that the strategist's agent, Jorge Mendes, is holding talks with the Portuguese Football Federation and hopes to win an important condition.

According to the press, J. Mourinho is interested in the possibility of taking the place of the dismissed Fernando Santos, but he would like to remain honorable and not run out of the “Roma” club quickly.

It is said that the specialist aims to sign a contract that would take effect from next summer.

J. Mourinho also hopes for a beautiful gesture from the leaders of the “Serie A” teams, whose request is to mutually terminate the contract valid until mid-2024.
