Jose Mourinho is adamant he will be back in a managerial hotseat this summer with job openings across Europe presenting themselves.

The former Manchester United boss has been gracing television screens across the globe as a pundit after being sacked by the Premier League giants in December.

However, the Portuguese is keen to step back into management with opportunities springing up across European Football.

Indeed, Serie A serial winners Juventus parted ways with Max Allegri on Friday while Bayern Munich boss Niko Kovac is expected to be sacked at the end of the season with Lyon also on the hunt for a new coach after Bruno Genesio stepped down.

“I have a lot of qualities and one of them is to respect other clubs and their management,” Mourinho told French radio station RMC [h/t Goal.com]. “I have never spoken like ‘this club wanted me, they contacted me.’

“When I left Manchester United in December, I immediately took the decision I want to work from summer. I hope to be back to work in July in a project I really like.”
