Benfica title-winner on Fenerbahçe shortlist to replace José Mourinho | OneFootball

José Mourinho was dismissed from Fenerbahçe this Friday, August 29, a day after losing to Benfica in the Champions League qualification play-off, thus failing to achieve the goal of qualifying the Turkish team for the regular phase of the European competition.

According to the Turkish press, Roger Schimdt is one of the coaches Fenerbahçe is considering to replace José Mourinho. The German coach has been unemployed since leaving Benfica last August and could thus return to managing a club.

Besides Roger Schimdt, the Turkish press also reports that Ismail Kartal might return to Fenerbahçe, as he was José Mourinho's predecessor at the Turkish club. The list also includes the following names: Vicente Montella, Luciano Spalletti, Ange Postecoglou, Marco Rose, Edin Terzic, and Nuri Sahin.

This is the seventh time José Mourinho has been dismissed in his career. According to the Turkish press, the Portuguese coach will receive a compensation of 15 million euros, bringing the total amount of compensation he has received in his career to over 100 million euros.

José Mourinho joined Fenerbahçe in July last year, thus being dismissed just over a year after his arrival in Istanbul. During his short tenure with the Turkish team, the Portuguese coach did not manage to win any trophies.
