Fenerbahce manager Jose Mourinho has dropped a bombshell regarding a potential return to the Premier League.

Jose Mourinho is a household name globally, especially in England, where he led Chelsea to three Premier League titles and earned the nickname "The Special One."

After managing prominent clubs, including Spanish giants Real Madrid, Mourinho is now in charge of Turkish giants Fenerbahce.

However, speculation persists that he'd love to conclude his career in England.

Throughout his managerial career, the Portuguese tactician has been linked to top-tier clubs, yet he's also shown willingness to take on less glamorous roles, as seen during his 2021 stint with Tottenham.

In a recent interview with Sky Sports, Mourinho was asked if he would consider a return to the Premier League under certain circumstances.

"Even though the Premier League is the best competition in the world, I am never going there to manage a club in the relegation zone.

"I will never go to manage one of those teams."

Mourinho was recently linked with a move to Everton, a situation that prompted Fenerbahce to put out a statement refuting any chance of an exit for the special one.

Jose Mourinho remains football's most enigmatic figure, and many fans would love to see him return to the English top flight.
