Things could be spicing up in the Premier League as news is going around that former Manchester United manager Jose Mourinho is a likely candidate to become Everton\u2019s new coach.<\/p>\n
The \u201cspecial one\u201d was at United from 2016-2018, where he won the Europa League and Carabao cup but his third season at Old Trafford imploded and he was sacked in December 2018. He has since gone on to Tottenham Hotspur, Roma and is currently at Fenerbahce.<\/p>\n
The Portuguese\u2019s side currently sit second in the Turkish Super Lig, three points behind Galatasaray and will get the chance to face United in a rematch with his former club after the international break when United travel to Turkiye to take on Fenerbahce in the third match of their Europa League campaign.<\/p>\n
Reports are circulating that the 61 year old may not be in Turkiye much longer though, according to Football Insider. Sources says that \u201cJose Mourinho is a \u2018strong option\u2019 to take over from Sean Dyche at Everton once Dan Friedkin completes his takeover\u201d.<\/p>\n
Although Mourinho only joined his current club in the summer, sources have told the website, \u201cdon\u2019t rule Jose out.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cFriedkin has a history with Mourinho after appointing him at his other top European club Roma in 2021 following his turbulent spell at Tottenham.\u201d<\/p>\n
The news is that the probable new owner of the Toffees reportedly does not see current manager Sean Dyche as a \u201cviable long-term manager of the club and the right manager to lead them out at the new stadium.\u201d<\/p>\n
It is believed that Mourinho would certainly add a dimension of glitz and glamor to a new era at the Liverpudlian club and could certainly be tempted by a return to English football after a few seasons away in the Serie A and now in Turkiye.<\/p>\n
Whilst he has had the chance to compete for league titles and play European football at Fenerbahce, a move to one of England\u2019s most historical football clubs might just be too tempting for the Special One to turn down.<\/p>\n
