The Greatest Stadium in the World: Jose Mourinho’s Tribute to San Siro

The iconic San Siro Stadium, a testament to Italian football’s rich history

As I sat down to reflect on my illustrious career, I couldn’t help but think of the iconic San Siro Stadium. The Portuguese tactician in me has had the privilege of working with numerous top-tier clubs, but there’s something special about the historic ground where I achieved significant success with Inter.

During my time with the Nerazzurri, I led the team to numerous victories, including a memorable Champions League triumph in 2010. That way, I solidified my legendary status in the world of soccer. But it’s not just the victories that make San Siro stand out - it’s the electric atmosphere, the passion of the fans, and the sense of history that permeates every corner of the stadium.

Roma fans, a testament to loyalty and dedication

However, when it comes to identifying the most loyal fans, my thoughts turn to Italy once more. But it’s not to Inter. Instead, I praise the supporters of Roma, the club I managed until recently. “For a team not used to winning, Roma fans are so, so loyal to the team,” I said. This acknowledgment is particularly poignant given Roma’s history of fluctuating fortunes and struggles to compete at the highest levels in the European scene consistently.

The UEFA Conference League Trophy, a testament to my recent success with Roma

Reflecting on my most cherished achievements, I highlighted my recent success with Roma in the UEFA Conference League. “The best trophy of my career? The last one, the Conference League with Roma,” I stated. For one of soccer’s most celebrated and enigmatic managers, the most recent victory always holds a special place. According to me, it reflects the immediacy of the emotions and the effort that goes into each campaign.

The Conference League triumph was particularly significant for the Rome-based side, as it marked their first major European trophy. It was also a testament to my ability to lead and inspire my teams to victory.
