Jose Mourinho has been enormously popular at Roma. His Serie A form had been less than ideal, but he had brought the club a European trophy. Yet his sacking in January 2024, amongst Roma fans came as a surprise.

To the outside world, a Mourinho sacking is part of the Portuguese’s legacy. But that wasn’t expected to happen at Roma.

How had he formed such a bond? And why was he dismissed in the end?

Written by James Horncastle. Illustrated by Marco Bevilacqua.
