Former Chelsea coach linked with job at Everton

Former Chelsea and Man Utd coach Jose Mourinho could soon return to the English Premier League.

The latest reports have revealed that Mourinho, who is currently a coach at Italian AS Roma, has been tipped as the favourite to replace Rafa Benitez at Everton.

The reports revealed that Mourinho is open to returning to England, where he has spent most of his coaching career coaching the likes of Chelsea, Man Utd and Tottenham, where he was sacked before joining AS Roma in the Seria A.

According to the reports, Benitez has been under intense pressure following the 4-1 defeat at Anfield to his former club Liverpool in midweek.

The defeat made it Everton seventh loss in their last ten Premier League games.

Throughout much of the game and at the final whistle, Everton fans jeered against both the manager and the Goodison Park board.

While Everton Co-owner Farhad Moshiri has publicly supported Benitez, but this can’t last if results don’t improve.

The reports revealed that if Moshiri and Co decide to end Benitez’s contract, then former Chelsea, Manchester United and Tottenham manager Mourinho’s availability will be looked into.
