# Everton: Fans fume over Jose Mourinho manager news

**Some Everton fans have been left fuming over some manager news that has emerged involving Jose Mourinho.**

As per [The Daily Mirror](https://www.mirror.co.uk/sport/football/news/jose-mourinho-next-everton-manager-25617271), the AS Roma manager has emerged as a potential candidate to take over from Rafa Benitez, should he be sacked at Goodison Park.

Supporters of the Merseyside club [vented their anger](https://www.mirror.co.uk/sport/football/news/jose-mourinho-next-everton-manager-25617271) towards the Spaniard as well as the board after their 4-1 defeat at home to Liverpool in midweek, and Benitez is now under pressure following a run of [eight](https://www.evertonfc.com/results) matches in the Premier League without a win.

Now, the board could turn to Mourinho should they wish to pull the plug on his reign.

Of course, Mourinho’s success in English football, in where he has won the top-flight title [three](https://www.transfermarkt.com/jose-mourinho/erfolge/trainer/781) times with Chelsea, is a factor as to why the board are looking at him as a potential successor, but he has tailored off in recent years, having left both Tottenham Hotspur and Manchester United midway through the season [outside](https://www.transfermarkt.com/jose-mourinho/leistungsdatenLigenNational/trainer/781) of the UEFA Champions League spots.
