AS Roma boss Jose Mourinho has hinted that he will be heading to the Saudi Pro League once his contract expires at the end of the season.

Mourinho has led the Giallorossi to two European finals for the first time in history, but he is expected to leave next summer.

Club fans have supported the legendary boss and match attendance increased significantly since his arrival in 2021.

Reports linked the Portuguese with a potential return to Real Madrid to take over from Carlo Ancelotti who is expected to head for Brazil.

However, Mourinho informed RAI1 he is eyeing a move to Saudi Arabia in the near future.

Despite winning the UEFA Europa Conference League in his first season at Roma, the team has struggled for form thus far this campaign.
