Roma legend Roberto Pruzzo believes Jose Mourinho could re-energise the Giallorossi squad if he takes charge of the club.

“I know it is just a dream.

“But if you a need a name to electrify the squad: the only name is Mourinho.”

Manchester United sacked Mourinho earlier this week, with the club languishing in sixth in the Premier League table.
