Jose Mourinho could have found his next club as he has held positive talks with European giants as 'negotiations continue'.
Following his dismissal from AS Roma in January, Mourinho, aged 61, has been without a club.
Mourinho has been linked to the Saudi Pro League, and even with potential returns to Stamford Bridge and Old Trafford, although these possibilities seem remote at present.

Speaking in the media since his sacking, Mourinho has made it very clear he wants to return to management sooner rather than later.
"I’m not in a rest, I want to work,” he told beIN SPORTS.
“I want to work but I just don’t want to have the wrong decision. I have to wait for the right one, the one that motivates me.

“But if I could work tomorrow I would work tomorrow," Jose continued.
