Bengaluru, June 10: Jose Mourinho could be set for a shock return to Premier League as the manager of Newcastle United if the Magpies are taken over by Sheikh Khaled bin Zayed Al Nehayan, according to reports.
The Multi-billionaire Sheikh is believed to readying a £350m offer to buy Newcastle, although nothing concrete has yet been fully confirmed.
Advisors of the Sheikh hves already insisted that the offer for the Premier League club is genuine, although their current owner Mike Ashley is yet to see any proof of the takeover funds.
But it is clearly believed that if Newcastle’s takeover goes through, there is likely to be a massive cash injection in the team and the Arab owners could reportedly look to bring former Chelsea and Manchester United boss Jose Mourinho to rebuild them into a Premier League giant.
