Bright Osayi-Samuel confirms Mourinho is scary at Fenerbache
By Monsurah Olatunji
Nigeria defender Bright Osayi-Samuel has provided insight into life under new coach Jose Mourinho at Turkish giants Fenerbache.
Fenerbahce signed Mourinho earlier in the summer, after parting ways with ex-manager Ismail Kartal despite coming second to Galatasaray in a season in which he amassed 99 points and only lost one match.
Meanwhile, the Super Eagles star joined Fenerbahce from QPR in the winter transfer window of 2021 and cemented himself as a fan favourite last season after engaging in a brawl with a rival fan who invaded the pitch.
The 26-year-old has enjoyed some weeks under the Portuguese tactician as he gave insights about life under the Special One.
“Mourinho is scary but also very nice,” he said according to Fanatik.
“It is a great honour to work with him. I want to learn the history of the players. He instils self-confidence in the player. I think I will learn a lot while working with him this year.”
