    Mourinho has been out of work since January when he and Roma parted ways amid a series of poor results.

    However, he looks set to land the tenth managerial job of his career and take the reins in Turkey for the first time.

    Speaking on his potential next appointment to Sky Sports ahead of the Champions League final, which is live on talkSPORT, he said: “Not yet, not yet.

    “I decided I want to go but it’s not done yet, I cannot confirm officially. But yes, I want to go.”

    Fenerbahce could play in the Champions League next season but first have to play in the qualifying phase, entering in the second round.

    Victory will take them into the third qualifying round before a play-off round that will decide if they reach the competition or not.

    “Hard,” he added when asked about their prospects. “Because we have three rounds to go in qualification and in Fenerbahce’s case, eight players are in the Euros and they’re not coming for pre-season before the first round.

    “So hard, but if I go, you know that I like challenges. So if I go, I’m going to fight to be in the Champions League.”

    Mourinho admitted that nothing is yet fully complete regarding the Fenerbahce job

    Mourinho also dropped a huge hint over his future when speaking to TNT Sports, with whom he’s a pundit for their Champions League final coverage.

    Rio Ferdinand asked him who the most famous person in his phone contacts is and with a smirk, the Portuguese legend replied: “This moment, it’s the president of Fenerbahce.”

    Mourinho is still regarded as one of the best managers in world football given his immense success across European football.

    He has won league titles at Porto, Chelsea, Inter Milan and Madrid, as well as the Champions League at the latter two clubs.

    The 61-year-old’s next challenge looks set to come at Fenerbahce, who finished second behind Galatasaray in the Turkish Super Lig.

    But he will first be at Wembley to watch his former club Madrid eye their record 15th Champions League title against Borussia Dortmund.
