Fenerbahce Dismisses Jose Mourinho…

Fenerbahce has shown Jose Mourinho the exit door quicker than a cat spotting a cucumber after their Champions League defeat to Benfica. Mourinho, who took on the Fenerbahce head coach role in June 2024 with hopes of lighting up the Super Lig, managed a respectable second-place finish last season. However, the club wasn’t as entertained by this European setback as they bid him a heartfelt ‘goodbye’ in a statement thanking him for his time on the sidelines.

Interestingly, Mourinho isn’t enjoying a lonely party, as Ole Gunnar Solskjaer became the second former Manchester United manager to receive a pink slip in just 12 hours. It’s like United ex-managers had synchronized watches for this unfortunate club-exit marathon. Solskjaer was let go by Besiktas following their Conference League defeat to Lausanne-Sport, ensuring Mourinho has a fellow passenger on this unexpected journey of freedom.
