Jose Mourinho has been hailed for "embracing the values" of Roma and the Italian capital after being tasked with restoring the Giallorossi as a major player both domestically and in Europe.
Tiago Pinto, the club's general manager, has opened up on the significance of securing the appointment of his fellow Portuguese last year. In his first full season with the club, Mourinho guided Roma to the inaugural Europa Conference League title – the club's only major European honour and their first of any kind since their Inter-Cities Fairs Cup success in 1961.
Mourinho's status and track record of success is legendary, but having had mixed successes in recent spells in charge of Manchester United and Tottenham, his appointment at Roma has seen him truly connect with the club's fanbase who offer him their comprehensive backing despite an underwhelming domestic campaign last time out.
