Love for Jose Mourinho is still high amongst Roma fans, with multiple banners supporting the coach seen in the Stadio Olimpico during the match with Hellas Verona.
This week’s Tuesday saw the Giallorossi fire The Special One, ending a 30-month tenure in the dugout in the Italian city.
After winning the Conference League in his debut season and reaching the Europa League final in his second, Mourinho rapidly won over the supporters.
Following Mourinho’s dismissal, banners and posters praising him and voicing fury at the club’s owners, the Friedkins, started to spread across the streets of Rome.
