Mourinho bans Roma staff from training ground ahead of Europa League final

Roma manager, Jose Mourinho has banned the club's staff from the training ground ahead of the Europa League final against Sevilla.

According to Corriere Dello Sport, the order was put in place on Monday.

Only essential staff will be allowed into their training base for sessions this week, with just technical and medical staff permitted to enter.

It is believed that this move is a sign of Mourinho's superstition ahead of Wednesday's game in Budapest.

The Portuguese took similar measures last year ahead of the Europa Conference League final, which Roma won against Feyenoord to deliver their first trophy success since 2008.

Mourinho is however expected to leave the Serie A club at the end of this season, with his two-year contract drawing to a close 12 months early.
