Jose Mourinho set for new job after Fenerbahce outburst as former Chelsea boss tipped for return
Jose Mourinho could be on his way back to the Premier League for a fifth time and with a fourth different club.
The Special One, who won the Premier League three times in two different spell with Chelsea, was most recently the manager of Tottenham in England, although he was sacked days before the Carabao Cup final.
He also won two trophies while head coach at Manchester United - the FA Cup and the Europa League - during a spell at Old Trafford between his time with Chelsea and Spurs.

Mourinho is currently the manager of Fenerbahce, although there are rumours his time in Turkey could soon be coming to an end, particularly after an outburst at what is happening in the league, describing things as "toxic".
After watching his side beat Hatayspor 2-1, Mourinho said: "My players did their best. We worked hard for nine days. We achieved a clear victory. If the opponent's colours were different, they could have been down to eight players. We know the 'toxic' league we play in.
"They know how to play against us, how to play against the opponent. There should have been five reds in Eyüp and this match. This is the situation. Our players and our opponents know this. We have to continue on our way.
"Why are you [the Turkish media] hiding the truth? What are people afraid of in this country? What are you afraid of? I know you are a journalist, I could be a journalist too, okay, but what are you afraid of? Is the point difference due to the football played? Speak the truth. Don't ask me!'"
Mourinho could be offered a route out of Fener and back to the Premier League by Everton, with Sean Dyche's future at Goodison Park hanging by a thread. The former Chelsea boss has been tipped to return to the Premier League and there has been huge movement in the betting market in the last 24 hours.
According to Oddschecker, over the past 24 hours, Mourinho’s odds of becoming the next Everton manager have been cut from 25/1 to 8/11. That shift in odds translates to an increase in implied probability from 3.8% to 58% that he replaces Dyche on Merseyside.
Oddschecker’s Leon Blackman said: "Translating those odds into an implied probability, the chances of him taking over from Sean Dyche in the role has increased from 3.8% to 57.9%, in the eyes of oddsmakers. Looking at the betting across Oddschecker, 74% of the bets on Wednesday placed with us have backed Mourinho in this market."
