AS Roma head coach Jose Mourinho is a man in demand at the international level, with Brazil reportedly rivalling Portugal in pursuit of his services as the national team head coach.

The 59-year-old is currently employed by Serie A club Roma, having joined in 2021 on a three-year contract.

There are reports that Mourinho is not entirely happy in the Italian capital, specifically regarding player attitudes and the club’s financial limitations.

An intermediary of Brazil’s national setup will fly into Italy to meet up with the Roma head coach – who has also been linked to the Portugal job – and begin negotiations face to face.
