Naumov: Saudi Arabia is a convenient option for Mourinho

Former president of the "Lokomotiv" club Nikolay Naumov shared his opinion on the direction in which Benfica head coach Jose Mourinho might continue his career. This was reported by Zamin.uz.

He spoke about this in an interview with the publication "Euro-Football.Ru". According to Naumov, Mourinho's strongest periods are behind him, and it might be beneficial for him to take a short break.

According to him, Mourinho was previously known for his unusual and unexpected decisions, but nowadays he has become a coach who opts for more ordinary and standard choices. Naumov believes that the Saudi Arabian league could be the most suitable option for Mourinho.

Because there are high salaries, a media-sensitive environment, and the opportunity to work with experienced, older players. He emphasized that these conditions fit the Portuguese specialist well.

Additionally, the Benfica team under Mourinho's leadership will face Madrid's Real in the Round of 32 of the Champions League. The first leg of the match is scheduled to take place in Portugal on February 17.
