It will be yet another summer of big spending in the European football market as players and managers search for new homes. Bayern Munich, record German champions are on the hunt for a new manager after confirming the departure of current coach Thomas Tuchel. Jose Mourinho, one of the most successful coaches in the history of the game is a free agent after leaving AS Roma and fits the bill to be the next Bayern manager with Director Max Eberl not dismissing the idea of hiring him.
Jose Mourinho to Bayern Munich?
Director Max Eberl: “Of course we’re also looking into coaches who are currently available. Jose learning German? I don’t know,” told BILD.
According to reports in Germany, Jose is one of the shortlisted candidates to get the Bayern job with the likes of Xabi Alonso, Julian Nagelsmann and a few others also on the radar. Jose has a proven track record with big clubs across Europe and has managed big clubs like Chelsea, Manchester United, Real Madrid and Tottenham Hotspur. Apart from the Spurs job, Jose has won titles everywhere and could bring a winning mentality.
Jose’s most recent job at AS Roma was also a success story considering he led them to two European finals before being sacked. Mourinho will be aided by the presence of Harry Kane and Eric Dier at Bayern as he worked with them during his time at Spurs. Both players could prove crucial in Jose’s incoming if Bayern decide to take feedback from the English duo.
In terms of silverware, Jose has won league titles in every country he has coached including Porto in Portugal, Chelsea in England (thrice), Real Madrid in Spain and Inter Milan in Italy. The Portugal gaffer also won the Champions League with Porto (2004) and Inter Milan (2010) and has won the Europa League with Manchester United (2017) and the Conference League with Roma (2022).
