European embarrassment will see Mourinho authorise Roma clear out with former Man United star set to depart | OneFootball

Jose Mourinho has always prided himself on being ‘special,’ however, Roma’s performance in the Europa Conference League this week left a lot to be desired.

The player is just coming up to his 32nd birthday, so his own options for employment could be limited elsewhere.
