What next for Jose Mourinho after Tottenham sacking?
The Portuguese could target a European job and resume working as a TV pundit until he finds a job that appeals.
Jose Mourinho has been sacked by Tottenham after a troubled and turbulent campaign.
The 58-year-old failed to deliver a trophy and leaves after 17 months at the club.
Here, the PA news agency looks at what could be next for Mourinho.
European job
Vitoria Setubal
Mourinho said at his Tottenham unveiling press conference that he would like to be at Spurs for five years before moving back to Portugal to manage Vitoria Setubal. Setubal is his hometown club and they could do with him at the helm after a tricky time where they were relegated from Portugal’s Primeira Division last season. They are on course to bounce back straight away, leading the second tier table, but it might still be too early for a return to the coastal town Mourinho calls home just yet.
Pundit
Retirement
This looks the least likely option as the Portuguese’s desire to keep working remains strong and he said earlier this season that he has 20 more years left in him. But after more than two decades in management and approaching 60, Mourinho may contemplate taking a rest and enjoying the riches he has earned back in his homeland.
