Mourinho's desire to establish a new technical team has been accepted by the club management. While it is expected that at least one Turkish coach will be included in the new team, the names of former Fenerbahçe players Tuncay Şanlı and Gökhan Gönül are emerging as strong candidates.

Fenerbahçe, finishing second after Galatasaray in the season, made a significant change in the coaching staff of head coach Jose Mourinho. The yellow-navy club parted ways with the Portuguese coach's assistants Salvatore Foti, Stefano Rapetti, Luca Fatiga, and Giovanni Cerra.

According to a report by Sabah Newspaper, this decision to part ways did not come from the club management, but directly from Jose Mourinho. The experienced coach made a negative assessment of the current assistant staff and communicated his desire to work with a new coaching team to the management. It was stated that Mourinho wants to continue with a younger and differently structured team.

The management responded positively to Mourinho's request, while also wanting at least one Turkish coach to be included in the newly formed coaching staff. In this context, the first prominent name is Tuncay Şanlı, one of Fenerbahçe's legendary players. Şanlı, who has coached Sakaryaspor, Ümraniyespor, and most recently Çorum FK, wore the yellow-navy jersey between 2002-2007 and later transferred to England's Middlesbrough team.

Another candidate is Gökhan Gönül. Gönül, who most recently served as the head coach of the U21 National Team, played for Fenerbahçe between 2007-2016 and 2020-2021. Gönül, who scored 14 goals and made 54 assists in 361 matches for the yellow-navy club, is among the important players of the club.
