Corriere dello Sport suggests that Roma coach Jose Mourinho has received a €120m offer to coach for two years in Saudi Arabia.
The report details how the two year offer, €60m for each campaign, arrived directly from top officials in Saudi Arabian football, to coach either the national team or a club like Al-Nassr or Al-Ahil.
The Saudi Arabian national team, led by Hervé Renard, shocked the world with their World Cup win over Argentina. The French coach left his role after the tournament and has taken on the job as France Women coach.
Al-Nassr picked up Cristiano Ronaldo on a free transfer in January, signing him to an incredibly lucrative two and a half year deal. Recent reports in the media also suggest that they’ve prepared a €400m total offer to Lionel Messi, whose contract with Paris Saint-Germain is expiring in June.
Mourinho has already discussed the €120m offer with his staff, where he has been told a variety of different opinions. The internal debate is raging on, with some believing the offer and unbelievable salary is a chance in a lifetime.
The Portuguese coach, however, would like to stay with Roma and is now waiting for a meeting with the Friedkins before making any decision.
No brainer if true
