Mourinho to Juventus: 3 reasons why the Portuguese manager could be a good fit at the Old Lady
The summer transfer window is only a few weeks away but the rumour mill has been rife with big name associations to varied clubs. From Antoine Griezmann’s Atletico Madrid departure to Kylian Mbappe's Paris Saint-Germain exit suggestions, the summer promises to be one of titular moves.
There is a good amount of uncertainty surrounding players and managers in the football industry this summer, with former Manchester United boss Jose Mourinho among some of the big names without a club.
The Portuguese manager was sacked by the Red Devils in December last year and has since been away from the touchline. He is expected to return to a managing role this summer and while he has been linked with a number of prospective clubs in recent weeks, Juventus have emerged as his newest fan.
According to recent reports, Cristiano Ronaldo wants Mourinho to take over the Old Lady following Massimiliano Allegri's departure.
Allegri recently stepped down from his managerial position amid discontentment with his tactics which was further fuelled by his European failure.
Amid the rumours, we take a look at how Mourinho could actually be a good fit for Juventus:
#1 Experience in the Serie A and the Champions League
Mourinho is no stranger to winning titles in the Italian top flight, having won an unprecedented treble - the Serie A, the Champions League, and the Coppa Italia - with Inter Milan in the 2009-10 campaign.
The achievement, which has only happened five times before in football, made the campaign one of the club's greatest ever.
Juventus made their priorities clear when they brought in game-changer Cristiano Ronado last summer. Having dominated Italy in the last decade, the Champions League is now their ultimate goal and Mourinho has just the track record to succeed.
