Fans of Ibrox side Glasgow Rangers react to the idea of Jose Mourinho joining Scottish Premiership champions Celtic.

Jose Mourinho the head coach

Jose Mourinho has reportedly been offered the Celtic manager’s job – and Rangers fans are loving it.

According to Italian outlet Di Marzio, Celtic have invited the Portuguese coach to take over at Parkhead this summer.

If Rangers don’t win any of the next two Premiership titles then the Hoops will have done 10-in-a-row, a prospect far more realistic if Mourinho takes the job.

Mourinho has been out of work since being sacked by Manchester United.

It seems hugely ambitious by Celtic if true, but Rangers fans on Twitter don’t seem overly concerned.

Neil Lennon probably isn’t completely out of the running to stay on as Celtic manager.

The Bhoys were seven points clear of Steven Gerrard’s Rangers when he took over in late February, but Lennon, whose side are nine ahead now, have just clinched the Premiership crown.

If they go on to win the Scottish Cup final against Hearts, thus completing the Treble Treble, then the Northern Irishman could count himself unlucky if he doesn’t the permanent role.

Jose Mourinho is seen in the stands prior to the Premier League match between Fulham FC and Everton FC at Craven Cottage on April 13, 2019 in London, United Kingdom.
