Former Man United, Chelsea & Real Madrid manager Jose Mourinho has been sacked as Roma manager with the club currently ninth in Serie A.

The 60-year old Portuguese took over in May 2021 and led Roma to the Europa Conference League title a year later.

But they are five points off Serie A’s final Champions League qualifying spot and last week were knocked out of the Coppa Italia by city rivals Lazio.

Owners Dan and Ryan Friedkin thanked Mourinho “for the passion and commitment he has shown” as boss.
