JUST IN : NOTTINGHAM FOREST AND Jose Mourinho Set for Shock Premier League Return After Fenerbahçe Exit with Nuno Santo Broken Relationship
Jose Mourinho is reportedly on the verge of a sensational Premier League return, just weeks after being sacked by Fenerbahçe. The 62-year-old’s time in Turkey ended abruptly following tensions behind the scenes, and now Nottingham Forest have made a surprise approach to bring the “Special One” back to England.
Forest are believed to be considering Mourinho as a replacement for Nuno Espírito Santo, whose relationship with the club has deteriorated in recent weeks. Sources suggest a major falling out between Nuno and key members of the club’s hierarchy, including tensions with technical director Nuno Santos, has left Forest considering a change before the new campaign fully kicks off.
Mourinho, a two-time Premier League champion with Chelsea, has been out of English football since his 2021 departure from Tottenham. Despite recent struggles, his pedigree and charisma remain undeniable — and Forest’s ambitious owners see him as the ideal figure to take the club to the next level.
If appointed, this would be Mourinho’s fourth Premier League club after Chelsea, Manchester United, and Spurs — a remarkable return for one of football’s most iconic and polarising figures. The Forest faithful will be watching closely as talks develop in the coming days.
