José Mourinho wants Newcastle manager’s job if Eddie Howe leaves

Fenerbahce head coach Jose Mourinho arrives to the Europa League match between Fenerbahce and Manchester United.

José Mourinho is targeting the Newcastle job if Eddie Howe leaves St James’ Park. The Fenerbahce head coach has unfinished business in the Premier League and has identified Newcastle as his best chance of another job in England, having managed Chelsea twice, Manchester United and Tottenham.

Mourinho made clear his unhappiness in Turkey with an extraordinary rant after Fenerbahce’s 3-2 win over Trabzonspor last Sunday. The Portuguese joined the club only last summer after being sacked by Roma in January but is eyeing other potential opportunities.
