Jose Mourinho took over at Roma after leaving Tottenham
Jose Mourinho has been sacked as manager of Roma, with the club ninth in Serie A.
The Portuguese, 60, took over in May 2021 and led Roma to the Europa Conference League title a year later and the Europa League final in 2023.
But they are five points off Serie A’s final qualifying spot for the Champions League and were knocked out of the Coppa Italia last week from city rival Lazio.
But after being beaten on penalties by Sevilla in the Europa League final last season, the Italian club won just five points from their first six Serie A matches in a bad start to the current campaign.
With Roma in 16th place, the former Manchester United, Chelsea, Real Madrid and Tottenham boss said he rejected the ‘craziest offer’ to leave last summer.
Mourinho’s contract expired at the end of the current season.
