Mourinho Should Apply For The Wolves Job – Petit

French legend Emmanuel Petit has suggested that Portuguese manager Jose Mourinho should apply for the Wolves job. Recall that Jose joined Benfica football club in September, and fans have been reacting.

According to Petit, an English top-flight return would be too good to refuse for Mourinho, especially because he has not had the best of starts at Benfica.

Petit added that Jose would relish embracing a new challenge with an EPL team at the wrong end of the table.

His words, “Jose Mourinho is not having the best of starts at Benfica, but you never know with him. Mourinho loves the Premier League and managing a team like Wolves could be something completely different for him. He’s used to teams with big players and a lot of money, trying to avoid relegation is something unexpected from Mourinho.

Why not? Wolves are linked with many Portuguese people, and have been for years now, so it would probably suit Mourinho. It would be a huge battle for him though, Mourinho is a fierce character and maybe Wolves need his fighting mentality to stay in the Premier League. For me, I’d be happy to see Mourinho back in the Premier League and managing Wolves.

No, Patrick Vieira shouldn’t take the Wolves job. Vieira has been let go in a few jobs now, so I think he would benefit from a more stable environment. I’d wish Vieira and Steven Gerrard a lot of luck if they decide to manage Wolves, but there would be some tough moments, and they would need to learn how to get through that,” he added.

WOW.

Jose Santos Mourinho Félix GOIH is a Portuguese professional football manager and former player who is the current head coach of Italian Serie A club Roma. Dubbed “The Special One” by the British media, Mourinho is one of the most decorated managers ever and is widely considered to be among the greatest managers of all time.

Mourinho was born in 1963 to a large middle-class family in Setúbal (a suburb of the Lisbon metropolitan area), Portugal, the son of José Manuel Mourinho Félix, who was known by the name Félix Mourinho, and his wife, Maria Júlia Carrajola dos Santos. His father played football professionally for Belenenses and Vitória de Setúbal, earning one cap for Portugal in the course of his career.

His mother was a primary school teacher from an affluent background; her uncle funded the construction of the Vitória de Setúbal football stadium. The Carnation Revolution leading to the fall of António de Oliveira Salazar’s Estado Novo regime in April 1974 also led to the family losing all but a single property in nearby Palmela.
