Despite risking a touch-line ban in the coming weeks, delayed justice will allow Roma manager José Mourinho to be present in the dug-out when his team hosts Inter Milan on Saturday.
The Special One caused controversy once more with a post-match outburst against referee Daniele Chiffi who officiated Roma’s fixture against Monza on Wednesday.
The Portuguese tactician described Chiffi as the worst referee ever while admitting that he had brought a microphone to record touch-line conversations.
Therefore, Mourinho can expect to be slammed with a suspension preventing him from being present in the dug-out in one or more of his team’s Serie A matches.
Nonetheless, the 60-year-old can rest assured for the time being, as he’ll definitely be able to guide his players from the touch-line in the crucial direct encounter against Inter this weekend.
As Sky Sport (via FcInterNews) explains, the investigation and legal procedures could take up to three or four weeks to be finalized.
Therefore, Mourinho will take advantage of delayed justice to host his former employers at the Stadio Olimpico on Saturday.
The Special One guided the Nerazzurri for two campaigns between 2008 and 2010, leaving after clinching a historic treble. The club’s supporters remain fond of the Portuguese, hailing him as a hero.
Mourinho’s Inter remain the last Italian club to lift the Champions League trophy, but one of the two Milanese giants will take part in the grand finale in Istanbul in a golden opportunity to bring back the prestigious trophy to the Italian peninsula.
