DBasia.news –  Jose Mourinho continues to be associated with clubs in Europe. Having been linked to Celtic, The Special One is now associated with Newcastle United.

As reported by Talksport, Mourinho can train Newcastle, replacing Rafael Benitez, if the club switches ownership from Mike Ashley to a businessman from the United Arab Emirates (UAE), Sheikh Khaled bin Zayed.

Cousin of Sheikh Mansour, Owner of Manchester City, is on the verge of having Newcastle. If the acquisition process is completed, Sheikh Khaled can give Newcastle a big dowry to buy players.

The Magpies can have big ambitions to compete at the top of the Premier League standings with a possible champion. Projects and big ambitions can be linear (one-way) with the thought of Jose Mourinho.

Moreover, Mourinho once expressed his interest in training Newcastle because he had studied with Sir Bobby Robson, former Newcastle manager.

“I want to go there (Newcastle). I like the feeling of going to Mr. Robson’s house. I like that feeling. I like the stadium and the atmosphere. They are enthusiastic and good supporters. I like the Geordies,” Mourinho said.
