Once again, José Mourinho finds himself in the eye of the storm due to a wild gesture committed during the most recent derby between Fenerbahçe and Galatasaray. The Portuguese coach, already known in Turkey for his controversial statements, has attracted numerous criticisms after grabbing the nose of opposing coach Okan Buruk during a tense closing phase of the match.
Currently, as reported by AS, there are two possible scenarios that could affect Mourinho. The first entails a significant disciplinary sanction from the Turkish Football Federation, which, according to article 44 of the Disciplinary Regulations, could range from five to ten match suspensions for the Portuguese manager.
Another potential outcome of this situation could be Mourinho’s dismissal by Fenerbahçe. Ali Koç, president of the Turkish club, will have the final word on the future of the former Roma and Inter coach. At the moment, no decision has yet been made, although according to the latest rumors, Fenerbahçe may be forced to pay around 40 million euros if Mourinho’s contract is prematurely terminated.
