Fenerbahce ended his companion with Mourinho, who has been at the helm of the soccer team since the 2024-2025 season, on his official channel on the afternoon of the 29th (Korea time). We thank him for his dedication to the team so far, and we wish him success in his future career,' he said, announcing his departure from Mourinho.
This is shocking news. Mourinho made a surprise appointment to Fenerbahce in June last year. Mourinho was taking a break after being abruptly replaced by AS Roma, and surprisingly his destination was the Turkiye League, not the European big leagues.

Even in the second year, when Mourinho is always confident, he was squeaky from the start. Mourinho led Fenerbahce to participate in the European Champions League (UCL) qualifiers, but failed to overcome the power gap with Benfica in the final qualifying round and was eliminated. In the end, Fenerbahce made a shocking choice of breaking up with Mourinho.
It is the fall of a master. Mourinho was the world's greatest master at FC Porto, Chelsea, Inter Milan and Real Madrid. As for his star quality as a director, he was the best ever. It didn't look bad until Chelsea's second term.
However, Mourinho failed at Manchester United and Tottenham. He also led AS Roma to the Europa Conference League title, but failed to overcome his third-year jinx. Fenerbahce, who boldly challenged, was also dismissed after a season. Mourinho is no longer expected to coach big clubs.
