Barcelona great Rivaldo says Jose Mourinho should consider a move to Brazil.

The Portuguese was sacked by Tottenham on Monday.

Rivaldo wrote for Betfair: "I'm his friend and I consider Jose Mourinho a great person and a fantastic manager who has nothing to prove so his phone should ring soon with new offers and I even heard about a potential transfer to a Brazilian club.

"It could be the perfect opportunity for a Brazilian club to try to make this huge signing. It would be a great experience for Mourinho, after so many years in Europe, to try to impose his mastery in South America."
