At the beginning of the season, the total spending of Fenerbahçe during the one-year period of Jose Mourinho, who came with great hopes to the Super Lig giant but was unsuccessful and eliminated from tournaments without even winning a cup, has emerged.
HE COST A FORTUNE
The Portuguese coach stated in a press conference, "One of the problems Fenerbahçe has is being able to cope with this very strong structure mentally. The outcome of this job was clear from the very beginning." However, despite this view, Mourinho made the management pay a fortune in nearly a year.
HE MADE 12 TRANSFERS
To build the squad that the Portuguese coach wanted, 12 transfers were made, and a total of 65 million euros was paid in transfer fees and rental costs. Moroccan forward Youssef En Nesyri became the most expensive player in Fenerbahçe and Turkish football history with a transfer fee of 19.5 million euros. The salaries paid to the 12 players this season amounted to a total of 27.8 million euros.
107.8 MILLION EUROS COST IN 1 YEAR
For Anderson Talisca, who was acquired from Saudi Arabia during the winter transfer window, 6 million euros was paid for 5 months. Mourinho was paid a salary of 10.5 million euros, and the total cost with his team reached 15 million euros.
According to the news in Takvim, thus, the one-year Mourinho period cost the Fenerbahçe club a total of 107.8 million euros (approximately 4.7 billion TL).
