Jose Mourinho eyes third Chelsea spell as 'ideal scenario' and frustrations emerge

Jose Mourinho is eyeing a shock return to Chelsea amid frustrations over a lack of financial backing at Roma.

The 60-year-old has been in Italy since May 2021 and won the Europa Conference League during his first season in charge, but has recently grown disappointed at how much money he has at his disposal. Roma spent just shy of £7million last summer, having brought in five players on free transfers, including Paulo Dybala and Nemanja Matic.

And now, according to the Daily Mail, Mourinho is keen on moving back to England and his preferred destination would be Chelsea for the third time, after winning three Premier League titles across his two previous spells at the Blues. The Portuguese's representatives have let it known that he would be interested in any vacancy at Stamford Bridge, although it is understood the club are willing to stick by Graham Potter.
