According to BBC reports, Jose Mourinho – who previously managed Manchester United from 2016 to 2018 – has left the door wide open for a sensational return to Old Trafford. Despite recently finishing his spell at Fenerbahce and initially stating he wanted a break, the “Special One” has told close confidants that he would be delighted to come back to United and is ready to fly to Manchester at a moment’s notice if the club makes the call.
What’s even more striking is Mourinho’s level of determination. The Portuguese tactician, born in 1963, is not only expressing his deep affection for United but is also willing to take a significant pay cut to make the move happen. He is prepared to accept around £8 million per season, far below the £11–12 million minimum salary he commanded at every other club he has managed.
Mourinho’s affection for Manchester United has never been in doubt. On several occasions, he has admitted that his time at Old Trafford was among the most special chapters of his career, even though his tenure ended amid controversy.
Analysts believe that Mourinho’s willingness to sacrifice financially shows just how much he sees United as the only destination worth abandoning his planned rest period for.
Currently, the managerial situation at Manchester United remains a hot topic, as the club continues to struggle in both domestic and European competitions. Against this backdrop, Mourinho’s latest move is certain to spark debate: Is it time for the “Special One” to return to Old Trafford and begin a new chapter?
