The contract of Fenerbahçe's Portuguese coach Jose Mourinho was terminated during training. The Portuguese coach and his assistants learned of this decision during the training session and left the facilities after saying goodbye to the players.
A significant separation occurred at Fenerbahçe. The yellow-navy team parted ways with world-renowned coach Jose Mourinho. Mourinho went from the hotel in Beşiktaş, where he was staying, to the facilities in Samandıra early in the morning for Fenerbahçe's training today. The Portuguese coach, who dressed for training and stepped onto the field, learned at 10:30 that his contract had been terminated while he was making his final preparations.
THE LAST STATEMENTS HAD CAUSED A SCANDAL
The Portuguese coach had been drawing attention recently for ignoring President Ali Koç and using accusatory language in his statements. After the crisis, Ali Koç's move was swift, and Mourinho was dismissed from his position. It caused a great stir that Mourinho learned about the termination decision after stepping onto the training field. After receiving the news, the experienced coach left the facilities, leading to comments like "Ali Koç's revenge was bitter."
THEY LEFT THE TRAINING
After checking the official statement of the yellow-navy club, Jose Mourinho left the training field without making any statement and with a blank expression. Mourinho's assistants also left the training early and then departed from the facilities.
Zeki Murat Göle took control of the training at Fenerbahçe in a hurry, and the players were made to warm up and practice a 5-on-2 ball recovery drill. Göle is also expected to be on the sidelines as the head coach against Gençlerbirliği.
