Fenerbahce betrayed Mourinho?

Many Fenerbahce fans believe that the team's leadership did not support Jose Mourinho in the transfer market, making decisions that betrayed the Portuguese coach.

Fenerbahce have gone on a shopping spree after sacking manager Jose Mourinho.

In the final days of the 2025 summer transfer window, Fenerbahce attracted attention when they recruited 4 quality contracts at once, including Marco Asensio (from Paris Saint-Germain), Ederson (from Manchester City), Kerem Aktürkoğlu (from Benfica) and Edson Álvarez (from West Ham United).

It is worth mentioning that all four of these high-profile deals came after Mourinho was fired by Fenerbahce, as he was unable to help the Turkish team qualify for the Champions League. A Bola commented that Mourinho failed with Fenerbahce in the Champions League qualifiers when he did not have the opportunity to use the four new recruits mentioned above.

In fact, Asensio, Ederson, Aktürkoğlu and Álvarez were all targets proposed by Mourinho to the Fenerbahce board of directors since the beginning of the summer, but the club only made the above deals after being eliminated from the Champions League, thereby losing tens of millions of euros in revenue.

On social media, many Fenerbahce fans believe that the club's board of directors betrayed Mourinho, and that the Portuguese coach was not the reason for the club's failure. "Mourinho is so pitiful, Fenerbahce betrayed him," said a fan named Turkiay.

Fenerbahce confirmed the sacking of the Portuguese coach after the club lost 0-1 to Benfica on August 28. This is the second consecutive season that Mourinho has failed to help Fenerbahce qualify for the Champions League.
