Ex-Chelsea manager Jose Mourinho is open to coaching opportunities in any location as he plans a return to the football scene this summer after parting ways with Roma.
Despite his dismissal from Roma in January, Mourinho has expressed eagerness to resume his managerial duties by the summer.

He hasn’t dismissed the idea of coaching a Portuguese team again, despite having moved abroad in 2004 to take the helm at Chelsea.
Mourinho, who started his managerial journey at Benfica, has consistently found himself in coaching roles, rarely remaining unemployed for over a year. Typically, his tenures at clubs last about three years.
Notably, during his stint in Portugal, he led Porto to victory in two national championships and achieved success in both the UEFA Cup and the Champions League.
Asked about the possibility of returning to management in his homeland, Mourinho told reporters while attending Moto GP’s Portuguese Grand Prix: “Zero news. I don’t have a club, I’m free. But I want to work, in the summer I want to work.”
He added: “Never say no, especially in football. My life is football. I can train anywhere and I have no problems.”
As the summer transfer window approaches and the domestic football season winds down, Jose Mourinho is likely to be on standby for new opportunities.
His next destination is yet to be determined, but given his history with clubs like Chelsea and Real Madrid, it’s expected that Mourinho will be a sought-after figure in the football world once more.
