4: FC Porto
This might be unlikely, but let us see how crucial it could be from a personal perspective for Jose. Porto just managed to notch an incredible victory against AS Roma through a thrilling injury time spot kick from Alex Telles.
They are in the second spot in the Primiera Liga and have done reasonably well on the European front too. Their manager, Sergio Conciecao’s job seems to be safe as of now. But, if they look to shake up things in the summer, Mourinho could be an ideal candidate.
Sometimes, when things don’t work according to your way, it is best to go back to your roots and start afresh. Mourinho announced himself on the big stage with his success at FC Porto and going back there to revive his career could be a smart move by him.
Even after staying abroad for so many years, the 56-year-old is still adept with the Portuguese league. He personally scouted Diogo Dalot for United, who has continued his development with the Red Devils in a remarkable way.
Similarly, working in familiar, homely surroundings could help him reconstruct his ideas, tactics and even propel Porto to European success if possible. It could also help the Primiera Liga gain a better status on the continental front. However, whether this happens to not, remains to be seen.
