Jose Mourinho's future at Roma is uncertain. Reports in Italy suggest that Roma are ready to sack Mourinho following a rocky start to the season. His team have had three defeats in their first seven games, the most recent being a 2-1 loss at home to AC Milan.
Roma have shown signs of improvement recently, however, with a 2-0 win against Frosinone and a 4-0 victory against Servette in the Europa League. Despite this, Dan Friedkin, Roma's owner, is reportedly still considering making a change. Correire dello Sport suggests that a defeat to Cagliari on Sunday could seal Mourinho's fate.
Furthermore, Friedkin has reportedly already lined up former Germany and Bayern Munich head coach Hansi Flick as Mourinho's potential replacement. Flick was recently fired as Germany's head coach following a 4-1 defeat to Japan in a friendly, and prior to this, he had spent two successful seasons at Bayern Munich, leading them to the quadruple in 2020.
Mourinho has been in charge of Roma for three seasons now, and in his first season, he guided the club to victory in the Europa Conference League, ending Roma's 14-year wait for a trophy. Last season, they were beaten by Sevilla in the Europa League final and finished sixth in Serie A, seven points off a Champions League spot.
Mourinho has also left the door open for a move to the Saudi Pro League. In an interview with Elhekayashow, he said, "I will definitely come during my free time but my belief is also that I will work there. I don't know when but I'm pretty sure it will happen. I'm in Rome, I'm focused and I'll give everything until my last day. Nobody knows the future but it's something I will definitely do."
