Mourinho has been a free agent since parting ways with Serie A outfit AS Roma following a string of poor results in January. Former West Ham striker Frank McAvennie expressed his desire to see the ‘Special One’ join the Hammers next season. McAvennie offered praise for Mourinho, expressing his admiration for the way he knows how to win tournaments and trophies.
He dismissed the criticism Mourinho received during his time at Man United, arguing that he was a successful manager despite only winning the Europa League and the Carabao Cup. McAvennie expressed his eagerness to see Mourinho join West Ham and suggested that under him, the team’s defensive play would likely improve.
