Mourinho rejected Saudi Arabian offer

Start

Roma coach Jose Mourinho has rejected an offer from Saudi Arabian club Al-Ahliworth a reported €90 over three seasons. The Portuguese tactician remains in-demand this summer, despite having seemingly confirmed that he will remain with the Giallorossi for next season.

Il Corriere dello Sport now report that Mourinho is the latest in a long line of players and coaches to have been targeted by Saudi Arabia, as they look to overhaul their football league.

The PIF investment in Saudi football has sent shockwaves across European football this summer, with players like Ruben Neves, Kalidou Koulibaly and Karim Benzema the latest to have made the switch.

According to the report, Al-Ahli wanted to appoint Mourinho on a  three-year contract worth a reported €32m net per season, but the Special One quickly rejected the offer as he wishes to remain in Rome to build on his work with the Giallorossi.
