West Ham might step up their efforts to sign Jose Mourinho, who is expected to depart Roma in the summer. At the conclusion of the current campaign, Italian powerhouse Roma is anticipated to lose their “Special One,” Jose Mourinho.
The Portuguese’s deal expires at the end of the 2023–2024 Serie A season, and it seems doubtful that he will extend it given the fact that he is finding it more difficult to motivate his Giallorossi players this year.
TeamTalk predicts that he will probably leave the club in the summer of 2019.
The team is now eight points behind leaders Inter Milan in the Italian top league, in seventh place.
A new challenge is in store, and a trip back to the Premier League is very likely.
LaRoma24 first reported on a startling offer that West Ham made to Mourinho back in March. Although he was flattered, Mourinho declined the offer since he was still focused on Roma.
Now that things have clearly changed, and the Hammers are reportedly actively looking for a Moyes replacement, it could be a good idea for Mourinho to go back into the English premier league, especially in a city he knows well, according to Football Insider.
Undoubtedly, if West Ham wants to maintain their winning momentum and prevent their Europa Conference League title victory from becoming just another “once in a lifetime” event, then acquiring the Special One is the right decision.
For Mourinho to be reassured by the idea, money would surely need to be invested in the team, but as the club shown during the previous transfer window, money will be made available for the right players.
