Jose Mourinho speaks out on Roma sacking after emotional farewell

Jose Mourinho breaks silence after being sacked as AS Roma manager, thanking fans for his time in the eternal city.

Jose Mourinho has finally spoken out after being fired as manager of AS Roma. He was seen leaving the Roma training ground earlier today, visibly upset. In an Instagram post, Mourinho thanked Roma fans for their support during his time in the eternal city. He shared a video montage of his best moments as the club's manager, expressing his gratitude for the experience. The comment section of his post was flooded with messages from Roma fans, expressing their appreciation for his time in charge. Despite his poor results in the league, finishing sixth twice in his two full seasons and leaving with the club in ninth, Mourinho still enjoys a positive relationship with Roma fans. He won the Europa Conference League in his first season and was runner-up in the Europa League in his second. Additionally, he played 13 academy graduates during his time in Roma. However, the club's owners invested £688 million in Mourinho and did not see a significant return on their investment in the league, despite his success in European competition. The combination of unexciting football and poor results led to a crossroads, especially since Mourinho's contract was set to expire at the end of the season. The club's decision to appoint Roma legend Daniele De Rossi as Mourinho's replacement has helped to ease the anger of Roma fans who had embraced Mourinho. This move has bought goodwill from the fans and is a step towards mending the complicated relationship Mourinho had with Romanisti.
