Mourinho who has managed Inter Milan in Italy has signed until June 2024.
The club, on its official twitter handle, said: “The club are delighted to announce an agreement has been reached with Jose Mourinho for him to become our new head coach ahead of the 2021-22 season.”
AS Roman also confirmed that head coach Paulo Fonseca will leave at the end of the season.
Roma president Dan Friedkin and vice president Ryan Friedkin said: “We are thrilled and delighted to welcome José Mourinho into the AS Roma family.
“A great champion who has won trophies at every level, José will provide tremendous leadership and experience to our ambitious project.
