Jose Mourinho continues to be of interest to Saudi Arabian teams despite his earlier commitment to AS Roma amid the club’s challenging start to the 2023/24 Serie A season.
The 60-year-old manager was previously strongly linked to a move to the Saudi Pro League last summer but opted to remain with Roma.
According to One Football, Mourinho is expected to be approached once again by Saudi executives from the Pro League in the summer of 2024, as his contract with the Serie A club is set to expire.

The ‘Special One’ is poised to become a free agent next summer when his current deal with Roma concludes, which has caught the attention of top Saudi Pro League clubs.
Mourinho has recently expressed his interest in managing a club in the Middle East, indicating his willingness to consider suitable offers in the future.
In the meantime, Antonio Conte has playfully taunted Jose Mourinho amid rumors linking him as a potential replacement for the Portuguese manager at AS Roma due to the club’s disappointing season start, according to the Daily Mirror.
Their history in the English Premier League was marked by an ongoing feud, fueled by Conte’s appointment as Mourinho’s permanent successor at Chelsea.
The dispute between Conte and Mourinho commenced after Chelsea’s 4-0 victory over Manchester United at Stamford Bridge in October 2016 when Mourinho claimed that Conte had “humiliated” him with his exuberant celebrations.
