‘Special One’ Praises Passion of Scottish Football, Fueling Speculation Over Potential Celtic or Rangers Role
Jose Mourinho has sparked excitement among Scottish football fans after refusing to rule out the possibility of managing in the Scottish Premiership in the future. The legendary coach, currently at the helm of Turkish side Fenerbahce, spoke warmly about the passion and intensity of Scottish football during a press conference ahead of his team’s Europa League clash with Rangers.
When asked if he would consider managing in Scotland, specifically with Glasgow giants Celtic or Rangers, Mourinho responded with characteristic charm. “Why not in the future? People can say,” he declared, leaving the door open for a potential move. However, the two-time Champions League winner was quick to emphasize his commitment to Fenerbahce, where he has been in charge for less than a full season.
“I’m not searching for a new job,” Mourinho stated. “I’m comfortable in a job that motivates me. Loyalty is important, and I wouldn’t leave Fenerbahce now. But in the future, who knows?”
Mourinho’s admiration for Scottish football was evident as he praised the passion of the league and its fans. “It’s a league of passion. For me, passion is everything,” he said. “To play in empty stadiums in a competition where there is not that fire of passion, for me, it doesn’t make any sense. Celtic and Rangers… they are big clubs with big fanbases, big emotions, big responsibilities, and big expectations.”
The comments have delighted supporters of both Celtic and Rangers, who have long dreamed of seeing the ‘Special One’ bring his managerial magic to the Scottish Premiership. Mourinho’s track record of success, including three Premier League titles and two Champions League trophies, has made him one of the most sought-after managers in football history.
This is not the first time Mourinho has fueled speculation about his next move. In October 2024, he jokingly mentioned the possibility of managing a “bottom of the table” club in England, which led to rumors linking him with the Everton job. While he later clarified that the comment was made in jest, it highlighted the enduring fascination with his career trajectory.
For now, Mourinho’s focus remains on Fenerbahce, where he has guided the team to an impressive 18-match unbeaten run. His side faces Rangers in a highly anticipated Europa League tie on Thursday evening, pitting him against a Scottish opponent in what promises to be a fiery encounter.
While Mourinho’s immediate future lies in Turkey, his comments have left Scottish fans dreaming of what could be. With his love for passionate football and admiration for the Old Firm clubs, the possibility of Mourinho gracing the Scottish Premiership one day remains tantalizingly alive.
