"What a TEAM what a SPIRIT what a PERFORMANCE. Let’s go… See you on Wednesday at the Olimpico," wrote Mourinho.

It is believed that the Roma board has not supported him during the January transfer window which is a few hours from being shut.

Mourinho is the type of manager who loves working under a team that spends freely and buys players that he needs.

Roma have their own structure on how they spend and Mourinho is straining considering a team needs reinforcements and that is what his competitors are doing.

Mourinho clearly understands what is going on at Roma and he is eyeing a Premier League return in the near future.

As a coach, you sometimes need to work with limited resources although the expectations are usually high, especially from the fans.

The Portuguese manager has struggled to maintain the top-four charge with his squad and he just needed to appreciate them after spending no money in January.

It will be a big blow to AS Roma if Mourinho will walk away at the end of the 2022/23 campaign.

The Portuguese won the Europa Conference League trophy with Roma and he was hoping to add more titles to the cabinet but things seem to be going south on his end.
