Newcastle United are one of the richest clubs in the world after their acquisition and plan to win major trophies and form a formidable team in the coming seasons.
Football Insider claims that they are very interested in bringing José Mourinho to the club and the Portuguese manager is also very interested in the job.
Eddie Howe is under a lot of pressure at the moment after a series of disappointing performances from him. Newcastle were expected to fight for Champions League qualification this season but have fallen to ninth place in the league standings. The Magpies have lost four of their last five games in all competitions, and a club with their resources should have better results.
If things don’t improve quickly, Howe could easily be out of a job and it will be interesting to see if Newcastle’s owners can convince Mourinho to take over.
The 60-year-old has already proven his worth in the Premier League. He has won multiple trophies with clubs such as Chelsea and Manchester United. The former Premier League winning manager is a proven winner at the highest level and has won club football’s biggest trophies.

He also has the experience of managing the biggest clubs in the world and Newcastle could certainly benefit from his quality, experience and mentality.
The opportunity to return to England can be quite tempting and therefore it is no surprise that Mourinho is very interested in taking the job at Newcastle. With the right backing in the transfer market, there is no reason why a world-class coach like him can’t turn them into title contenders.
