Jose Mourinho is out of work since being sacked by Roma earlier in the year.

Will Jose Mourinho want the Newcastle job?

During his time with the Magpies, Howe has averaged 1.70 points per game; a decent record considering the team he inherited when he replaced Steve Bruce at the end of 2021. However, with Mourinho’s record, especially in Europe, far superior to the former Bournemouth boss’, it is understandable why the 61-year-old may be an attractive option.

Consequently, going on to predict the influence super agent Jorge Mendes could have in deciding Mourinho’s next club, Collymore added: “Not only that but with Jorge Mendes as his agent and Mendes having close ties with Saudi chiefs, it seems to be just a matter of time before his top managerial client ends up at one of the clubs the Middle East is associated with, and while that could lead to Mourinho managing in the Pro League, I could certainly see him in the northeast soon.”

Thankyou ⚽
