With eight League titles ( with four different clubs), two Champions League ( with two different clubs), Europa League and eight domestic cups ( with five different clubs), is Jose Mourinho finished in the Premier League?
Mourinho replaced Mauricio Pochettino at the end of the Tottenham hotspur stadium in November 2019, leading the north London club to a six-placed finish in his debut campaign in charge.
However, this season has seen Tottenham struggle under the Portuguese, with the club currently 5 points adrift of the Champions League places.
The 58-year-old’s spell at Tottenham was his fourth in the Premier League.
The surprising thing was that he was sacked just before a cup final which is weird.

Whether he’s going through a rough patch and he’s still got silverware in him or he’s lost his love of the game and the decline is terminal, is something that many club chairmen will currently be pondering.
While his relatively lack of success with Manchester United and abject failure at Spurs means that it’s unlikely a top side would give him another shot in the foreseeable future, I’d say a side in the middle to the lower end of the Premier League would jump at the chance to hire him and that means Mourinho would have to lower his wage demands in order to rebuild his reputation.
I think Mourinho is anything but finished in the managerial career. Maybe in the Premier League, It’s likely he’ll never return.
There are high profile jobs he can take right now, Juventus where they have already been rumours of looking to bring in a new manager after a relatively horrendous run in Serie A. Mourinho is yet to conquer Germany and with the departure of Hansi Flick, the Bayern job is open though there are probably better candidates as Bayern are one of the strongest clubs in the world, might not go for him as his recent career has been rather shoddy.
He could be heading to Portugal. It won’t be bad to have him return to his home country.
