Mourinho Accepts Offer from Saudi Arabia, But He is Not Leaving Roma
José Mourinho, whose name was approved by the Saudi Crown, will have a contract as a member of the institution for three years and will aim to discover new talents to create a “generation of champions”, as described by the press in the Arab country.
The announcement was made this Monday amid a wave that has led names of the world’s greatest footballers to travel to that country. José Mourinho’s connection to the Mahd Sports Academy will not impact the position held by the Portuguese coach at Roma, the club with which he has a contract until 2024.
The Saudi Mahd Sports Academy has been making strategic efforts to strengthen the country’s football infrastructure and create a pathway for young footballers to excel. Mourinho’s arrival reinforces their dedication to excellence and adds a new dimension of excitement to the Saudi football landscape.
With a stellar coaching career behind him, including but not limited to numerous domestic and international titles with top European clubs, Mourinho’s presence is expected to inspire and elevate the academy’s players to new heights. His influence on the development of young talent at the academy promises to be a game-changer for Saudi Arabian football.
