Celtic have today dismissed reports in Italy that they want Jose Mourinho to become their new manager.
Sky Sports have reported on their website earlier today that 'The Special One' could 'restart the club' by taking a job in a 'minor league'.
Strewth @DiMarzio reporting Mourinho has an offer from Celtic
— James Horncastle (@JamesHorncastle) May 5, 2019
Mourinho has previously said that Champions League is a prerequisite of any job he takes in future, with the ex-Real Madrid, Porto and Inter Milan boss having been out of a job since leaving Manchester United.
Other stories in Italy on Sunday suggest that Mourinho was also offered a deal with Roma in Serie A.
Earlier this week bookies were forced to slash the odds on Jose Mourinho becoming the next permanent Celtic manager, from 66/1 to 14/1.
Why are you making commenting on The Herald only available to subscribers?
It should have been a safe space for informed debate, somewhere for readers to discuss issues around the biggest stories of the day, but all too often the below the line comments on most websites have become bogged down by off-topic discussions and abuse.
heraldscotland.com is tackling this problem by allowing only subscribers to comment.
We are doing this to improve the experience for our loyal readers and we believe it will reduce the ability of trolls and troublemakers, who occasionally find their way onto our site, to abuse our journalists and readers.

We are lucky at The Herald. We are read by an informed, educated readership who can add their knowledge and insights to our stories.
That is invaluable.
