  Fenerbahce 'pledges' to appoint president Mourinho soon

  May 31, 2024

  Jose Mourinho's arrival at Fenerbahce is imminent.

  
  “Mourinho and Fenerbahce have reached a verbal agreement on a two-year contract until the summer of 2026, with an option for a one-year extension,” transfer market expert Fabrizio Romano said on social media on Wednesday. It will include an option for a one-year extension. Now it's time to finalize all the paperwork and sign the contract,” he said, adding that the signature phrase ‘HERE WE GO,’ used when an official is imminent, could be shouted soon.

  
  Mourinho has won numerous trophies with Porto, Chelsea, Real and Inter Milan. He won the Portuguese League, Portuguese Cup, and UEFA Cup (now the UEFA Europa League) in the 2002-03 season with Porto, completing a 'mini-treble'. The following season, he also won the UEFA Champions League.

  
  He then moved to Chelsea, where he continued his success in England. In his first season, he won the Premier League (PL) title with the fewest goals conceded (15). In three years, he won two league titles, one FA Cup, and two League Cups.

   

  Mourinho's next challenge was in the Italian Serie A. He also proved his leadership skills at Inter Milan, winning the Serie A, Coppa Italia, and UEFA Champions League in the 2009-10 season, a triple treble. He then went on to manage Real, Chelsea, and Manchester United, winning trophies with all of them before being sacked after just his third season.

  
  Before taking over at AS Roma, he managed Tottenham, where Son Heung-min was playing, but left after two years without winning a single trophy. He was named AS Roma manager ahead of the 2021-22 season. In his first season in charge, the club won the inaugural UEFA Europa Conference title.

   

  Last season was another positive one, with the team reaching the UEFA Europa League final. However, this season has been a bit of a disappointment. In mid-January, AS Roma announced on the club's website that “Mourinho and his coaching staff will be leaving the club.” Shortly afterward, the club appointed Daniele De Rossi as head coach.

  
  Mourinho was linked to a number of clubs in the immediate aftermath of his sacking. His hometown clubs Chelsea and Porto were among the favorites, as well as Newcastle United and Saudi Arabian clubs. At first, Mourinho expressed his intentions, saying, “I hope to be back in the field from the upcoming summer.”

  
  Then Fenerbahce emerged as a possible candidate. In the middle of this month, Portuguese media outlet Avola reported that “Mourinho has emerged as Fenerbahce's new managerial candidate. Fenerbahce will soon elect a new president. The election date is 토토사이트 May 25th. One of the candidates, Aziz Yildirim, has promised to appoint Mourinho as his campaign pledge.”

   

  According to the outlet, Yildirim said, “I spoke to Mourinho for about two hours. I told him, 'I need you. I also said that Fenerbahce needs you'. Mourinho accepted. We are also negotiating with his agent. If I become president, I will give him the baton,” he said.

  
  Besiktas has also been linked to Mourinho. “As Besiktas continues its search for a new coach for next season, the club has made some progress in recent days, according to Turkish media outlet Milliyet. The second president of Besiktas, Hussein Wissel, revealed that he has met with Mourinho.”

   

  According to the outlet, Wissel said: “We were in contact with Mourinho a month ago and he responded positively to our offer. Everything will be decided within the next week. The meeting next week is important. The financial details, such as salary, have already been finalized.”

  
  But the final destination was Fenerbahce. Fenerbahçe is a prestigious club in Turkkiye where Kim played two years ago. This season, they finished second in the Turkkiye Super Lig. They lost to Galatasaray again. Fenerbahçe hasn't won the league title in 10 years, since the 2013-14 season. The club has hired Mourinho, who is a “championship man” and is looking to regain the crown.
