    Mourinho iin Saudi

    Mourinho, now out of work, meets Al-Rumayyan "accidentally" I just wonder if he's touting himself

    Quote
    Newcastle United chairman Yasir Al-Rumayyan came face to face with Jose Mourinho during a chance meeting at the Saudi Arabian Grand Prix.

    The pair were introduced to each other with the Toon chief saying a quick "hi" to the former Chelsea and Manchester United boss before the duo went their separate ways with the meeting lasting only a few seconds. Mourinho is now out of work after being sacked by AS Roma while current Newcastle manager Eddie Howe was described as "incredible" by co-owner Amanda Staveley just days ago, with the board happy with the 46-year-old.

    It wouldn't surprise me if he ends up managing in Saudi for 66 billion a week in wages.

    He can go anywhere for any money as long as it's not here. Stick with EH and let the lad win something for us.

    Saw the video-looked canny 'chance' to me. The guy he was with pointed him out and they basically passd each other with an 'aalreet' before moving off.

    I think he'll end up in Saudi as well - as top said, made for each other.

    Wouldn't be able to spend what he wanted here like he's used to either.

    And as usual not getting much quality for money. Big name big spender. He's had too many chances over the years than lesser" known managers have had a life time and had no chance of proving themselves.

    Mourinho was over there for the Joshua / Ngannou fight on Friday night..

    Wouldn't surprise me at all if he's not there for management opportunities in the Saudi League too
