Jose Morinho held talks on the leadership position of the national team in Nigeria, according to the president of their football federation.
Nigeria is looking for a new coach who fired Gernot Rohr on the eve of next month's African Nations Cup.
Rohr had been in charge for five years, but was dismissed after their last matches were seen equal to Cape Verde.
The Nigerian Football Federation (NFF) handed over the role of Coach Augustine Eguevoen, but he is unlikely to be the man at the helm until the tournament begins in Cameroon in January.
NFF President Amaius Pinnick claimed they would appoint a new coach in the next week or two, and seemed to suggest that Mourinho was involved in the discussions.
Second of all, we'll also see how hungry he is to win trophies, because if they're hungry, it replaces many things and if he wants to win, he'll instill discipline.
We're going to look at all these things, but I can't make a direct statement, because I'm going to hurt my executive committee.
So until my executive committee comes out within the next week to say that this is the name because the technical committee should bring their presentation to the executive committee. It will be a smooth move for the current team led by Eguevoen.
But we've talked to three main trainers and [Jose] Pesero, whose name has been popular, is one of the trainers and I can tell you he's a good coach.
For Mourinho, who became head of Rome during the summer alone, Pinnick added: “Of course, Moourinho, I won't tell you that we didn't talk to Mourinho because we talked and the minister of sport also spoke to Mourinho and there's nothing wrong with him.
If the coach gives us the Cup of Nations, it will be drafted immediately. I'm not gonna tell you that it's gonna be later, what's the point of recruiting? If the executive committee says yes and we are ready, what are we waiting for?
Of course, Mourino, I won't tell you that we didn't talk to Mourinho because we talked to the minister (sport) and he also talked to Mourinho and there's nothing wrong.
When I spoke to one of the trainers Tuesday, he was already looking for our players and telling me things I didn't even know about our players.
It was very impressive and he showed me the strength of each player and took me out of the race. We will not experiment and if he can win the UN Cup, there is no problem”
Mourinho has hinted that he will seek to enter international direction only after ending up fully with the club's game, with his most likely alternative to eastern Portugal.
“Special One” signed a three-year contract with Rome at the end of last season, and Gialoros found themselves in sixth place on the Serie A table, six points from the last country of the Champions League.
