Jose Mourinho issues come-and-get-me plea to Premier League clubs

JOSE MOURINHO has issued a come-and-get-me plea to the Premier League.

The Special One hinted that he could LEAVE Fenerbahce after his side held former club Manchester United to a 1-1 draw in the Europa League.

Fenerbahce manager Jose Mourinho has teased a potential Prem return

The Portuguese boss produced a vintage Mourinho performance after he was shown a red card for his touchline outburst, before delivering a classic hostile interview.

Mourinho, 61, said: “Best thing I can do is to go to a team who does not play in Uefa competition.

“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.

The Fenerbahce manager was raging after Manuel Ugarte appeared to bring down Bright Osayi-Samuel in the box around the hour mark.

But he lost his temper when neither the referee nor VAR gave the penalty.

And TNT Sports host Jules Breach revealed he launched a foul-mouthed tirade in the tunnel “that she couldn’t repeat”.

After the game, the Portuguese boss gave a very tongue-in-cheek explanation for his anger.

Mourinho was forced to watch the rest of the game from the stands

He told TNT Sports: “I congratulate the referee. He told me something incredible.

“He said at the same time he could see the action in the box and my behaviour on the touchline.

“His peripheral vision during the game, at 100 miles per hour, he had one eye on the penalty situation and one eye on the bench and on my behaviour so that’s the explanation given.

“That’s why he is one of the best referees in the world!”

Mourinho was sent off FIVE times during his two-year spell at Serie A side Roma before he was sacked in the summer and joined Fenerbahce.

Meanwhile Man United took the lead in the match through Christian Eriksen after a sleek move in the 15th minute.

However, Mourinho’s side equalised early in the second half through former Sevilla star Youssef En-Nesyri.

Mourinho even teased a potential return to the Prem BEFORE the game in Istanbul.

The former United boss refused to bash Erik ten Hag‘s tumultuous campaign, instead saying: “Sooner or later they will succeed.”

The ex-Chelsea and Spurs gaffer added: “Hopefully sooner and hopefully before I go back to the Premier League and they become my opponents.”

The Special One has a two-year contract at Fenerbahce that runs until the summer of 2026.

He won three Prem titles across two separate spells at Chelsea, while he later had stints in charge of United and Tottenham.

Man Utd ratings vs Fenerbahce: Onana saves the day for Red Devils as Lindelof has a stinker

ywAAAAAAQABAAACAUwAOw==

MANCHESTER UNITED were held to a 1-1 draw by Fenerbahce on a disappointing night in Turkey.

Christian Eriksen broke the deadlock for Erik ten Hag’s side in the first half before En-Nesyri levelled soon after the break.

Fenerbahce boss Jose Mourinho was sent to the stands in the second half after a touchline tantrum.

But the Red Devils could find a much-needed winner for Erik ten Hag.

SunSport’s Emillia Hawkins rates the performances…

Andre Onana – 7

Made an outstanding double save in the 37th minute to keep two attempts from Youssef En-Nesyri out.

His defenders could’ve done much better to prevent Fenerbahce’s goal.

Diogo Dalot – 5

Failed to track back at times and had his blushes saved in the first half by Ugarte, who made a crucial tackle on Dusan Tadic to prevent a goal.

Matthijs de Ligt – 6

Made some good blocks during the first half to keep Fenerbahce at bay.

Missed a few chances from set-pieces after the break.

Victor Lindelof – 4

Failed to follow En-Nesyri for Fenerbahce’s opening goal and made no attempt to win the ball.

Hauled off in the 54th minute.

Lisandro Martinez – 5

Like Lindelof, he did not apply any pressure to En-Nesyri for the hosts’ first goal. Poor communication from both.

Christian Eriksen – 7

Broke the deadlock for United with a great strike into the top-left corner from the edge of the box.

Manuel Ugarte – 6

Won the ball in the build-up to the first goal and saved Man Utd from conceding with a fantastic last-ditch tackle in front of goal in the 22nd minute.

Was lucky to avoid giving away a penalty after the break.

Noussair Mazraoui – 6

Didn’t look too out of place starting in the No10 position. Played a role in the build-up to the goal, passing the ball to Zirkzee who got the assist.

Eventually moved into left-back, allowing Martinez to move central.

Marcus Rashford – 5

Played out of preferred position and started on the right as opposed to the left.

Didn’t make too much of an impact on the game.

Alejandro Garnacho – 6

Played a key role in the build-up to Erikson’s goal by making a direct run into the box.

Challenged Dominik Livakovic a few times and looked lively.

Joshua Zirkzee – 5

A poor overall performance from the striker despite providing the assist for Eriksen’s opener.

Failed to make much of an impact and was hauled off in the 54th minute.
