According to reports from Sportskeeda, renowned Portuguese manager Jose Mourinho is being considered for a surprising return to the Premier League with Everton. Currently at the helm of Fenerbahce in Turkey, Mourinho is rumored to be a potential candidate for the managerial position at Goodison Park, especially given the uncertainty surrounding Sean Dyche’s future.
Dan Friedkin, Everton’s new owner, is reportedly contemplating a managerial change following a disappointing start to the season, with the team securing only one win in six Premier League matches. Friedkin’s previous connection to Jose Mourinho, with whom he worked at AS Roma during their UEFA Europa Conference League victory in 2022, has fueled speculation about a potential reunion.While Mourinho has enjoyed success at top clubs like Chelsea, Inter Milan, and Real Madrid, his recent tenures at Tottenham Hotspur and AS Roma have not been as impressive. Nevertheless, his proven track record and distinctive leadership style make him an attractive candidate for Everton as they aim to revitalize their season.In a related note, Manchester United, Mourinho’s former club, is also grappling with managerial challenges and may be in search of new leadership. However, a return to Old Trafford for Mourinho seems unlikely, as the club’s new owners, INEOS, appear to be focused on a long-term rebuilding strategy, considering other options such as Gareth Southgate and Thomas Tuchel.
