“Special One” José Mourinho wants the baton of the national team. 토토사이트
Mourinho said in a recent interview with Fabrizio Romano that he is ready to take on the national team in Europe, Africa and South America.
Starting with Benfica in 2000, Mourinho has been the manager of prestigious clubs including FC Porto, Chelsea, Inter Milan, Real Madrid, Chelsea, Manchester United, Tottenham Hotspur, and AS Roma. He won numerous cups in the process and stood tall as a world renowned maestro.
However, Mourinho is unemployed as he left AS Roma in January. He was dismissed due to poor performance and is currently taking a break for his next step.
“It’s my goal to be a coach for the national team,” Mourinho said at the time. “I think it would be possible if we were about to play at the World Cup, the Euro, the Copa America or the African Cup. But if we have to wait two years for the position, I don’t know. Of course, it will happen one day.”
It’s amazing news. Recently, Mourinho appeared on Rio Ferdinand’s YouTube channel “FIVE” and confessed that he had a chance to take the helm of England in 2007. Of course, he finally refused, and his career focused on clubs, not on the national team.
One, the situation is different now. Mourinho seems to be losing ground in Europe compared to the past. There is no doubt that he is still a world leader and he has plenty of love calls. Nevertheless, he has rarely found a new job after being dismissed from Rome, so he seems to be turning to a new place.
For South Korea, Mourinho’s interest in the national team is a welcome news. After experiencing a thorough failure under Jurgen Klinsmann, Hwang Seon-hong established an interim system and barely finished two consecutive Asian qualifiers against Thailand for the 2026 North-China World Cup with one win and one draw.
His leadership was clearly meaningful to the extent that he was mentioned little by little about the possibility of appointing Hwang. Despite this, Hwang expressed his intention to focus on the Olympics rather than the A team immediately after arriving in Korea.
South Korea’s vacant managerial position again. It could be a very good choice if conditions are met at a time when Mourinho openly wants to coach the national team.
There is even Son Heung-min in South Korea who was a teammate of Mourinho and Tottenham. And there are outstanding players such as Lee Kang-in, Kim Min-jae and Hwang Hee-chan. Regardless of realistic conditions such as ransom, Korea can be a great dish if there is a top-notch chef like Mourinho.
The problem is that realistic conditions are the biggest stumbling block. Mourinho is known to have recently turned down an astronomical offer from Saudi Arabia’s Al Shabab. Money may not be everything for Mourinho, of course, but chances are high that the Korea Football Association will find it difficult to meet even the minimum standards. In an interview with Mourinho earlier, Europe, Africa and South America were mentioned but Asia was not mentioned at some point.
It is not a realistic story. It is a story of catching clouds. However, it is undeniable that it is a happy thing just by imagining it.
