In the second match of the UEFA Champions League playoff round, Fenerbahçe will face Benfica away, and head coach Jose Mourinho held a press conference before the critical match.

The Portuguese coach made important statements regarding the match and the transfer process, while also making striking remarks about Hamdi Akın's words regarding Benfica.

Here are Jose Mourinho's statements;

"BENFICA IS A VERY GOOD TEAM"

"I think there is a street named after me in the city of Setubal. Bruno Lage knows my history very well since the beginning of my career. I like him a lot, and I know he respects me. Benfica is a very good team. They have brought in strong and experienced players. A compact team. A solid team in defense. This time, there will be great stadium support behind them. However, our only goal tomorrow is to win."

"WE WON'T BE AFFECTED BY THE ATMOSPHERE"

"I don't think the team will be affected by the atmosphere. Of course, the enthusiasm of Benfica's fans is a factor, but Fenerbahçe will not be negatively affected by it. I love Bruno Lage and respect his career as a head coach. Bruno is a good head coach. He has not previously managed a big team like Benfica, but at this stage of his career, he is managing Benfica. I wish him success except for tomorrow."

"I DON'T KNOW THE PERSON WHO MADE THE STATEMENT"

"I don't know who made the statement that tomorrow's match will be easy. It may be a statement that strengthens him within the club, but I don't know him. Benfica is an opponent that fills empty spaces well. The truth is, I would like to say that Benfica is a balanced team. Our only goal is to win."

WHAT DID HAMDİ AKIN SAY?

Fenerbahçe Vice President Hamdi Akın said regarding the Benfica match, "Anything can happen. Anything is possible. We can easily get through. Why shouldn't we! What is there in Benfica? You see it here. They are not a very important team. I think it will be a very close match, very close..."

"I AM NOT THINKING ABOUT THE TRANSFER OF KEREM AKTÜRKOĞLU"

I am not thinking about the transfer of Kerem Aktürkoğlu. I don't think the club has made any extra effort to provide me with more opportunities for these two Benfica matches. If the Champions League were vital for my club, something would have been done during the period between Feyenoord and Benfica. The same players who played in the Feyenoord match will be on the field... When this is over, whether it is the Europa League or the Champions League, there will be a definite time for the UEFA list. I don't know if anything will happen by then. I can't say what we will do tomorrow, but we do not have the same squad as Benfica. We do not have a squad that the head coach can use to create surprises. I don't think we have too many options to make surprises."
