Jose Mourinho wants Premier League return after Fenerbahce contract: ‘I am ready to go’

Jose Mourinho said that he would be “ready to go” back to the Premier League at the end of his Fenerbahce contract in two years.

The 61-year-old, speaking after his side’s 1-1 draw against Manchester United in the Europa League on Thursday, said that he would be prepared for a return to English football.

Mourinho won three Premier League trophies across two separate spells as Chelsea manager, while he later had stints in charge of United and Tottenham Hotspur.

The Portuguese head coach was asked about a future return to England after the match in Istanbul, where he has a two-year contract at Fenerbahce that runs until the summer of 2026.

“Best thing I can do is to go to a team who does not play in UEFA competitions,” Mourinho said after the match.

“So a club at the bottom in England who needs a coach in two years, I am ready to go. I don’t want to speak any more about it.”

Mourinho also sarcastically called referee Clement Turpin “one of the best in the world” after he was sent-off in Thursday’s match.

Mourinho was shown a straight red card by French official Turpin for his reaction after Fenerbahce’s Bright Osayi-Samuel went down under a challenge from Manuel Ugarte inside United’s penalty area.

Replays appeared to show minimal contact from Ugarte on Osayi-Samuel.

“I congratulate the referee,” Mourinho told TNT Sports after the match.

“He told me something absolutely incredible, that he could see my reaction and the penalty incident at the same time. He had one eye on both at the same time. He has peripheral vision in an incident at 100 miles per hour. That is why he is one of the best referees in the world.

“I watched the incident. I don’t speak about the incident.”

Fenerbahce, who have five points from their three Europa League group phase matches, return to action on Sunday in the Turkish Super Lig against Bodrum.

I don’t see why Everton will want him, their new owners sacked him at Roma. It is a bit of 1+1 = 4. Given how public and how messy that sacking was, I cannot see them going for him. Not to mention, he has a contract with Fener.

New owners or not but I doubt Everton will be spending big £ to buy him or any mid to higher profiled manager out of contracts. They wanted Potter cause he was available for free, now the rumblings are they will go for Moyes, again available for free.

Galatasaray

  • Didier Drogba sends a message to Galatasaray after José Mourinho was accused of racism: “Dear Galatasaray… You know how proud I was to wear the yellow and red jersey, also my love for the most decorated club in Turkey. We all know how passionate and heated rivalries can be, and I’ve been lucky enough to experience it. I’ve seen the recent comments about José Mourinho. Trust me when I tell you I have known José for 25 years and he is 𝐧𝐨𝐭 a racist and history (past and recent) is there to prove it. Let’s focus on our games, support our brilliant lions and let’s win the league to get close to our 5 stars. How can my dad be a racist… come on guys.”

  • Another bizarre moment in Jose Mourinho’s career as he grabbed the nose of opposition manager Okan Buruk after last night’s defeat for Fenerbahce! How much trouble could the Special One be in for this? FT Fenerbahce 1-2 Galatasaray [Pictures from Canli]

  • Buruk later said: “He pinched my nose from behind. There was a slight scratch. Of course, it wasn’t a very nice or elegant thing to do. We expect managers to behave more appropriately in such situations. I won’t exaggerate this issue, but it wasn't a classy move.”

  • Galatasaray vice-president Metin Ozturk added: “Our manager Okan and Mourinho congratulated the referees. After that, while Okan was continuing, Mourinho first verbally and then physically attacked him. Where else in the world can he do this? What does he think of Turkey? I believe that Fenerbahce’s management will impose the necessary sanction before the federation does.”
