Jose Mourinho could end up leaving the Tottenham much earlier than expected, and not precisely because of conflicts with the leadership. The 2020-21 season has seen the 58-year-old Portuguese strategist reconsider his future and the possibility of fulfilling a dream he has had since starting his career on the bench. Indeed, it was known that the scores towards Setúbal would be on the rise and he already values leaving the London club for 2022.
Mourinho’s season with Tottenham has not been what was expected, since the attack front made up of players like Harry Kane, Son Heung-Min and Gareth Bale does not finish carburetting. In the midst of this situation, the interest of the Portugal National Team so that The Experienced One take the reins of the new generation would be incessant.
So that, Mourinho would already have an offer for 2022 at the end of the Qatar World Cup, in order to be the natural replacement for Fernando Santos. In addition, a salary amount close to 12 million euros per year would have been established to finish convincing him. As if this were not enough, it would have absolute control of the lower categories to restructure a model and an idea of the game that ends up being imposed in the largest.
Mou’s decision would not be made, since he would have an agreement with Daniel Levy to raise the project. However, the way in which the project evolves, the response of the sports management to transfer requests and the team’s performance in both the Premier League and continental competitions could mark a final determination.
Mourinho wants to make history again
Mourinho He would have a thorn in after his last experiences on the bench, where he has lost that favoritism as the best coach. In that sense, he is considering – before retirement – putting his name back at the top with a historical event such as the Premier or the Champions League at club level with Tottenham, and even a World Cup with Portugal. The following months will serve to meditate and give an answer to the Portuguese Football Federation. Will there be a surprise after Qatar?
