“I’m not interested in any of AS Roma’s players”
I thought it was ‘love’, but it was ‘fake news’. New AS Roma boss Jose Mourinho has denied that he is “not interested” in any of the players who have been touted as his “first choice” signing. It seems like a wise decision. After all, it was Romelu Lukaku, a player who is notoriously known for his ‘express cheating’. In conclusion, there will be no reunion between Mourinho and Lukaku at Fenerbahce.
On April 4 (KST), British media outlet Sportsmall reported that ‘Mourinho has given a 100 percent confirmation on the Lukaku signing rumors’. Mourinho was appointed as Fenerbahce’s manager on March 3 to great fanfare. The official signing ceremony was held at Turkkiye Istanbul’s Şikrü Sarazolu Stadium, 바카라사이트 where thousands of fans attended to welcome Mourinho. Mourinho was overwhelmed by the enthusiasm of the fans.
However, with Mourinho’s arrival came reports of his plans to sign players. In the summer transfer window, Mourinho is expected to bring in players that fit his style in order to improve Fenerbahce’s fortunes. It’s only natural for a new manager to bring in new players to revamp his squad. The question of who Mourinho will bring in has been the center of attention.
Some surprising names have been touted by local media as his ‘first signing’.
The rumors started when Aziz Ilidirim, the former president of Fenerbahce, said at the signing ceremony that he had “spoken to Mourinho about the players he wants to sign” and Lukaku was the first name that came up. The speculation was that Mourinho would bring Lukaku back to Fenerbahce to utilize the player he had previously had at Chelsea, Manchester United, and his former club AS Roma.
However, these speculations have been debunked. Mourinho himself denied the Lukaku rumors. While answering a journalist’s question about the possibility of signing AS Roma playmaker Paulo Dybala in the transfer window, Mourinho cleared the air on the possibility of reuniting with Lukaku.
Mourinho said, “(Dybala and Lukaku) are just names of former players at my old club (AS Roma). 메이저 토토사이트 I say that with 100% certainty. I have no interest in players from AS Roma,” Mourinho said, drawing a clear line in the sand. With those words, he put an end to any rumors of a reunion with Lukaku and even Dybala.
