Mourinho oversaw 138 g🌄ames as Roma head coach in all competitions, winnꦬing 68 of those (49.28% win rate).
The 61-year-old was at Roma for two and a half years, leading the club to the Europa Conference League title in 2022 before reaching the Europa League final the following season, only to lose ⛎to Sevilla on penalties.
However, he endured a tough start to his t🌱hird season in charge, and a run of one win in five Serie A games at the start of the year r🐼esulted in his contract being terminated.
He was out of ꦰwork until June, when he took over at Fenerbahce, but has struggled to find a spark in the Turkish Super Lig, with the club eight points behind Galatasaray in the title race.
During his career, he has enjoyed stints at Porto, Chelsea over two spells, Inter, Real 🐽Madrid, Manchester United and Tottenham, winning a combined eight domestic titles and two Champions Leagues during that time.
Although he would "certainly" lik⛄e a return to Serie A, where he also had notable success with Inter, he admitted that is not his 𝐆only hope for the future.
"I've never watched Roma play again, but I've watched Inter," he told🅘 Corriere 🐽dello Sport.
"I want to play a European Championship or a World Cup and unite a country around a team, as I have already done many times with the clubs. I want to do it for football and what this sport re𒉰presents🐷. It will be incredible."
Ask♎ed if he had any regrets from his career, Mourinho added: "Many, if we talk about games.
"Regarding professional decisions, the no to Florentino [Perez]. He told me: 'Mou, don't go now, you've done the tough part, now the best one starts.' I knew it was true, but I wanted to return to Chelsea after three years of grea🌳t challenges in Spain.
"And then Budapest [the Europa League final]. Not for [Anthony] Taylor's mess, but because I didn't leave immediatel༺y. I should have left Roma. I didn't do it, and it was a mistake."
