José Mourinho has been relieved of his duty as AS Roma manager.
This was according to a statement on the football club’s website on Tuesday, January 16, 2024
According to the statement, Mourinho and his staff will leave the club with immediate effect.
The statement reads, “AS Roma can confirm that José Mourinho and his coaching staff will leave the club with immediate effect.
“We will always have great memories of his tenure at Roma, but we believe that an immediate change is in the best interests of the club. We wish José and his assistants all the best in their future endeavours.”
Mourinho took charge as AS Roma’s 60th coach in May 2021, and his tenure had notable moments, including leading the team to victory in the Conference League in Tirana on May 25, 2022.
Additionally, he guided Roma to the Europa League final in Budapest last season. However, despite these achievements, the club has decided to part ways with the Portuguese manager.
Mourinho will now begin the hunt for his next job, with the former Chelsea and Real Madrid boss reportedly attracting interest from several clubs in Saudi Arabia.
Meanwhile, according to Fabrizio Romano, former Roma midfielder Daniele De Rossi is the frontrunner to replace Jose Mourinho in the Stadio Olimpico hot seat.
