Mourinho Sacked By AS Roma

Portuguese coach, Jose Mourinho, has been sacked by Roma after two-and-a-half years at the Serie A club.

Roma announced Mourinho’s sacking in a statement on Tuesday.

Mourinho guided Roma to Europa Conference League glory in 2022, but leaves them ninth in the table after a disappointing 2023/24 campaign.

The club have won just one of their last five games, recording three defeats and one draw.

“AS Roma can confirm that José Mourinho and his coaching staff will leave the club with immediate effect,” the club announced.
“Mourinho was unveiled as the Giallorossi’s 60th coach in May 2021.

“He led the team to win the Conference League in Tirana on May 25th, 2022, and to the Europa League final in Budapest last season.

“We would like to thank José on behalf of all of us at AS Roma for his passion and efforts since his arrival at the club,” said Dan and Ryan Friedkin.

“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.”
