In a statement to UEFA TV, the Brazilian star said about Jose Mourinho: “There’s no need to talk about his quality. He’s a great coach.”

Fenerbahce star Fred expressed his support for Jose Mourinho, who has recently been the focus of criticism. The Brazilian star told UEFA TV, “There’s no need to talk about Jose Mourinho’s quality, everyone knows what he’s achieved. He’s a great coach, and I’m grateful to him. Mourinho was one of the people who brought me to Manchester United.

When I was playing at Shakhtar Donetsk, he called me and said he wanted me to join Manchester United. After a phone call from Mourinho, I couldn’t say no. Now I’m at Fenerbahce, and he’s here too, so we’re together again. We want to win many titles, and Mourinho came here for that. He’s here to help us reach the top of the table, to fight for European championships, and I’m sure we’ll do great work together.”
