He was sacked by the Serie A outfit following a run of poor results.
However, the self-proclaimed ‘Special One’ is now set to make a triumphant return to our TV screens.
According to The Independent, he is currently in talks with Amazon Prime over a new job.
Mourinho could be set to join the streaming service’s brand new Champions League coverage.
The former Manchester United, Chelsea and Tottenham boss has allegedly been receptive to Amazon’s initial approach.
However, his final decision will come down to whether or not he accepts a new managerial job before the 2024-25 season starts.
Reports claim he is on the verge of becoming Fenerbahce’s new manager.
Amazon recently bought the live rights for 17 live Champions League games over the next three years.
