Currently without a club since his departure from AS Roma last January, José Mourinho does not know what his future will hold. The Portuguese manager is currently taking advantage of his free time and giving several interviews.

And the latest is the one granted to ex-Manchester United defender Rio Ferdinand for his YouTube channel.

The double winner of the Champions League with FC Porto and Inter Milan looked back on his different experiences and sent a declaration of love to some of his former players, namely players from the African continent.

The Portuguese greatly appreciated his various collaborations with African players and admits to having fallen in love with their way of being and their mentality.

“It’s simple, I can’t go to Africa anymore! The fans are crazy, everywhere! I coached Didier Drogba, Salomon Kalou who is Ivorian, Samuel Eto’o from Cameroon, Michael Essien, Muntari from Ghana, John Obi Mikel from Nigeria… I had guys from all over Africa. Every time I go there, I can’t walk on the street. People love me so much! Even in Europe where there are a lot of Africans, they adore me. To be honest, I love Africans and especially their players. The African player is very loyal. “Some players call me ‘dad’, like Michael Essien, even though they’re almost my age.” did he declare.

José Mourinho, one day at the head of an African team?

What will be José Mourinho’s new adventure? Where will he put his luggage? At this moment, mystery. Several rumors send him to Bayern Munich to take over from Thomas Tuchel who has a strong chance of leaving the ship at the end of the season?

In Saudi Arabia? Is it possible, the Portuguese said he received a golden contract from a Saudi club several months ago? What if the former Real Madrid coach took the reins of an African selection? This is an option that should not be ruled out, but it is not on the agenda. An adventure within an African selection could suit him who adores players from this continent. With the aim of winning a CAN or a World Cup who knows. To be continued…
