Rome street artist dedicates mural to Mourinho: “We will not forget who we were.”

A Roman street artist has painted a mural honoring José Mourinho, the former Real Madrid coach, as he prepares to return to Roma's Olimpico stadium. The mural depicts Mourinho holding a Roma scarf in one hand and the Conference League trophy in the other, cradling it close to a child dressed entirely in yellow and red. The image symbolizes the Coach's undying connection to Roma, even as he prepares to coach Real Madrid.

The artist, known as Drugi, added the poignant words "We held hands on the roof of Europe. For one night, we will forget love, but we will never forget who we were." This tribute acknowledges the special bond between Mourinho and Roma fans, a connection that will remain even as Mourinho dons the blue of Real Madrid.
