Jose Mourinho sends a bomb to his rivals: I hope they can pay their salaries.

The world-renowned coach of Fenerbahçe, the Super Lig giant, Jose Mourinho, made some controversial statements to FB TV.

"I AM VERY HAPPY"

Evaluating the training camp process, Mourinho said, "It was a camp where our players gave everything. The first week is always difficult. We had two training sessions a day. Everyone was very focused and did their best. We tried to focus on our training rather than the match we played on Saturday. It's not easy to play such a preparation match. The players were already tired from the week of training before the match, but it was a good opportunity for me to get to know my players. It was also a good opportunity for them to get to know me. We had many missing players, but it was always an opportunity for me to see the young players I have. It was also a good opportunity for me to understand the level of organization of our club. There were no mistakes for a week. Everything went very well and organized. That's why I am very happy with the first week we had," he said.

"I KNOW WHAT ÇAĞLAR WANTS"

Talking about the acquisition of Çağlar Söyüncü's transfer, Mourinho said, "I am very happy. I also thank our president because he was one of the players I wanted to keep. Çağlar has qualities that I really like as a player. He had previously expressed his desire to stay. We always want players who want to stay at the club and have loyalty to the club. Before I came to Fenerbahçe, I was interested in him when I worked with him in Rome, I wanted to bring him to the team, but it was not possible. He knows what I want, and I know what he wants. He loves this place and wants to transfer here permanently. Atletico Madrid had many options, but our club did a really good job. Çağlar also made a great effort to stay here. He will come with us to Austria tomorrow. The camp we will have in Austria is very important for us because we have many players in the European Championship. He couldn't participate in the European Championship due to his injury. Therefore, he will start training with us tomorrow. It will be very important for us," he said.

"I HOPE THEY CAN PAY THE SALARIES"

The experienced coach also made a reference to their arch-rivals, saying, "The transfer period is open for the press for 12 months. It is different for the clubs, but the transfer period continues in the press for 12 months. This is actually enjoyable for people, but there are also realities. Some teams have already made a lot of transfers, which I think is good for the league. But I hope they can pay the salaries because really high salaries are being paid. I hope they don't have problems in the future, but actually this is not our problem. We need to focus on ourselves, not other teams. We have determined the profiles we need. I have been talking about this since the first day I came here, we know the profiles we need. So, I know that we will play our first official match very soon. This puts some pressure on us, but we need to stay calm. We shouldn't be emotional. We need to bring the right players with the right agreements. We shouldn't rush. We don't need to bring too many players, like 6, 7, 8 players. We know our priorities. I know that Çağlar already seemed like a Fenerbahçe player in the eyes of the people, but he wasn't actually. He came on loan. So, we brought him back to our team and added a good defender to our team," he said.

From the coming weeks, I predict that we will add players who will fit our approach to our squad. No team becomes a champion in the transfer period. Championships are won in April, May. In the transfer season, you can only win the transfer cup, but there is no such cup. We need to stay calm, we know what we want. I am sure that we will achieve what we want during this time. I don't have time to enjoy what is being talked about in the press during the transfer period. I am focused on my work. I know that many false news and truths are written in the press and on the internet. I don't have time to enjoy them. I am completely focused on my work. We will go to Austria now, we will have a camp there. Official matches will start in two weeks. In the second week, Livakovic, Tadic, and Szymanski will join our team. Djiku and Bright have returned, they are ready to play in our first friendly match. I think Çağlar Söyüncü is also ready to play in the first friendly match," he said.

"THE FOOD IS VERY GOOD"

The coach, who said he liked the food very much, said, "I don't know if the cake-cutting culture belongs to Turkish culture or if it is a culture specific to the club, but it is one of the nice things I see here. I try to learn different things from the culture of the places where I have worked in my career. I like the cake ceremony here. It's like feeding a baby - when I say baby, I mean the birthday person - it's nice for an older person to feed the cake. The players come together, creating a family atmosphere. At the same time, one of the negative things here is that the food is very good. I am normally someone who takes good care of myself, but here I have to take care of myself twice as much because the food is really good," he said.
