One thing is sure – Jose Mourinho loves to coach. Maybe money is a big factor for some managers, but not for the Portuguese, because he is a millionaire, and has been for quite some time. For the sixth time in his rich coaching career, he was fired. And although he is certainly not happy about it, he will hardly shed tears because of his unwanted parting with Roma. Partly because he has already lived through it several times, and partly because he has paid fairly every time. Roma didn’t even bother about it, since they will pay him around 3,500,000 euros to terminate the contract six months before its expiration. Small amount if we compare it with some of the earlier costs primarily of English clubs for premature parting with “The Special one”.Heart over mind as untested club legend comes in to pick up the piecesChelsea started first. When Mourinho left Stamford Bridge for the first time in 2007, he left with around 21 million euros in his pocket. He also received slightly less, around 20 million for parting with Real Madrid. And then twice less, exactly 10,000.00, when he left Chelsea for the second time, in 2015. He was most “happy” about his dismissal from Manchester United in December 2018, just a few months after he extended his stay until 2020. When he left Old Trafford, he carried an incredible 23,000,000 euros in his suitcase! It didn’t go badly even when Tottenham decided that it was enough after 17 months of cooperation, and broke up with him two years before the deadline, with a farewell message of about 17,000,000 euros. When we add everything together, it is somewhere around 94,500,000 euros! Breaking up is easier to get over with so much money in the account.1.61 – José #Mourinho was in charge of #Roma for 96 games (W44 D23 L29) in #SerieA, recording an average points of 1.61, the lowest such ratio among the coaches with 50+ matches with the Giallorossi in the 3 points for a win era (since 1994-95).

The Daily Mail calculated and came to the conclusion that Antonio Conte is the next on the list of the most difficult coaches to fire, and he also took a “modest” 43,000,000 euros, of which as much as 30,000,000 when Chelsea fired him in 2018. In Rome, the fans adored Mourinho, since he led them to the 2022 Conference League cup, the first European since 1961, last season he played in the Europa League final and lost to Sevilla, at times it seemed that he would really succeed in bringing Giallorossi back to the very top of Italian football, but… In the end, he was defeated by Milan (1:3) in Sunday’s derby. And the fact that they won only one match in the last six league games, a total of eight in 20 matches in Serie A this season, didn’t help either. ##NAJAVA_MECA_7805390##
