Former Man Utd and Chelsea manager gets last chance in Roma

Former Chelsea and Man Utd coach Jose Mourinho could be sacked as AS Roma manager if they lose their Serie A clash against Cagliari on Sunday.

Mourinho who is in his third season at Roma, has guided the team to back-to-back sixth-placed finishes in the Italian Serie A league as well as a Europa League final and victory in the inaugural Europa Conference League.

However, so far this season Roma have won only two of their first seven fixtures and are seated at 13th position on the league table.

A report via Correire dello Sport revealed that Roma’s owner Dan Friedkin is ready to sack Mourinho if they are beaten by bottom of the league Cagliari.

It was further claimed Friedkin wanted to fire the Portuguese after their 4-1 loss to Genoa last week but was persuaded to give him more time by sporting director Tiago Pinto.

Since then, Roma have defeated Frosinone 2-0 in the league and Servette 4-0 in the Europa League, but Friedkin is still said to be considering Mourinho’s future.
