Jose Mourinho was sacked by Manchester United in December of last year and since then the Portuguese has been without a club.
During this time, he has worked as a pundit but a couple of weeks ago, Jose Mourinho made it clear that he intends to return back to management during the summer.
“What I have in mind is that I would like to be back in the summer, in June, for a new club, for a new pre-season,” he said.
“I know exactly what I don’t want – that’s the reason I’ve had to say no already to three or four different offers.
“And I know what I want in terms of, not a specific club, but the nature of the job, the dimension of the job. I know what I want and I’m going to be waiting for that.”
Some reports have claimed that Mourinho might return back to the Premier League, other though have said otherwise.
Some think Jose Mourinho is waiting to become the next manager at PSG as the club are reportedly not happy with Tuchel and might seek a new manager during the summer.
Now though, some sensational news has come out which is claiming that Celtic FC are actually interested in bringing Jose Mourinho as their next boss at the club.
The report claims that the Bhoys have made contact with Jorge Mendes – the agent of Mourinho.
Celtic have made an offer for José Mourinho, as his agent Jorge Mendes continues to try to make an opening with PSG, according to @DiMarzio.

While this sure is sensational news since Celtic would be the last club that Jose Mourinho is likely to join[with all due to respect to the Glasgow side].
Despite his failures at Man United, Mourinho still remains one of the top managers in world football and signing him will mean that Celtic might just have to shell out as much as their whole transfer budget in order to rope in the Portuguese.
But while we are busy trying to dissect the whole report, the Rangers fans have shown no mercy and have already started to take the mickey out of their arch-rivals.
Boston Celtics?

UPDATE:
Recent reports though have absolutely rubbished these rumours saying that Celtic have made no contact with Jose Mourinho.
As if we did not know already.
