“I am very happy to join the team at RT. I am looking forward to attending the World Cup in Russia this summer and sharing my insights into the games,” Mourinho said of the partnership with RT.
RT stated Mourinho will ‘share his expert analysis and predictions for the tournament’. The World Cup starts on 14 June with Russia taking on Saudi Arabia in the opening game in a Group A clash.
