The above movement shows that the position of the "Special One" in Rome is shaking violently. The reason Roma president Dan Friedkin wanted to talk to CEO Lina Souloukou about coach Mourinho's case was because he was unhappy to see the home team continually receiving negative results.

After losing to Milan by a difference of 1-3, Roma only had 1 victory, while suffering 3 defeats in only 5 recent matches. One of them was a 0-1 defeat at the hands of hated neighbors Lazio, which caused Roma to crash out of the 2023/24 Coppa Italia quarter-finals. Meanwhile, in Serie A, after a series of bad defeats, Roma fell to ninth place in the standings.

Although Roma is currently only 5 points away from the top four, if they continue to play weakly like this, it will not be easy for the Bethel team to win tickets to the Champions League next season. During his illustrious coaching career, Coach Mourinho managed a series of famous clubs such as Porto, Chelsea, Inter, Real, MU and Tottenham before cooperating with Roma.

The current contract between him and the representative of the Italian capital will expire in a few months. It is not clear whether the parties will renew the contract or not, but with what is happening we cannot rule out the possibility that coach Mourinho will be fired even earlier than expected. It should be noted that not long ago coach Mourinho issued an "ultimatum" to Roma.

Mourinho's renewal

Therefore, he will only consider signing a new agreement if he receives an offer to extend the contract before February. For its part, Roma's board of directors has identified a person willing to replace the 60-year-old Portuguese coach: Daniele De Rossi, a former midfielder who spent many years with the team before retiring.
