The opposite of Ancelotti: Mourinho expresses desire to coach a national team
Few top-tier managers transition from club football to leading national teams, but some are eager to test themselves at the international level.
Details: Fenerbahçe head coach José Mourinho emphasized that his dream in managing a national team would be to unite a country, describing it as an incredible experience.
Quote: “I want to coach at the European Championship or the World Cup, to unite a country around its national team just as I have so often united clubs and their fans. I want to do it for football, for what this sport represents. It would be incredible,” Mourinho stated in an interview with Corriere dello Sport.
Reminder: Earlier, Mourinho’s compatriot Carlo Ancelotti expressed that working with a national team would be a complicated matter for him.
