There is no manager in the world who is better at severance packages than Jose Mourinho. – The two-time Champions League winner has collected over 100 million euros in severance packages during his career. We at Sporten are 100% sure also Fenerbahce, when they signed the contract with “the special one” this summer, have accepted a severance package that costs.
Fenerbahce yesterday lost the Europa League match at home at Ülker Stadyumu Fenerbahçe Şükrü Saracoğlu Spor Kompleks against Athletic Club. The loss could mean that Jose Mourinho loses his job.
AS wrote before the game that the Portuguese would be in danger of being sacked by Fenerbahce if there was not a “positive result” against the Bilbao club. The match turned into a nightmare for the Turkish giant. Inaki Williams made it 1-0 after only five minutes of play. The same Williams then increased the away team’s lead just before half-time.
Fenerbahce went down 2-0 and had Mert Müldür sent off in the second half.
Fenerbahce have collected eight points from six Europa League games. Mourinho himself has estimated that they need eleven points to progress. Athletic, on the other hand, has 16 registered points and is ready for the playoffs. The Bilbao club also has a very good chance of taking a direct place in the round of 16.
In the regular season, Fenerbahce are second after 14 games played and six points separate league leader Galatasaray.
There are intense rumours that Wolverhampton, if they choose to sack manager Gary O’Neil, are looking at a solution where they buy out Jose Mourinho’s contract. Fenerbahce can now either choose to sack Jose Mourinho and pay a parachute, keep him and just acknowledge that this season will not be as expected or cross their fingers and hope that there will be a Santa Claus from the Premier League.
