“I don’t think it’s fair that these big financial sharks always manage to find a way to dodge the rules,” said the former yellow-and-red technician.
Josè Mourinho, coach of Fenerbahce, continued the back-and-forth that has been ongoing for days with Pep Guardiola. The City coach had reiterated that he had won 3 more Premier Leagues than the Special One, to which the Portuguese quickly responded, “But I did it cleanly”. Finally, the Spaniard explained that it was a joke and that the legal proceedings against Manchester were still ongoing. Here’s the latest response in this endless long-distance dialogue, this time with a reference to Rome: “Pep and I worked together for three years, I was his assistant and he was a player, he knows I like him a lot, and he likes me and knows that there are no problems between us. One thing is our words, another is our feelings. It’s not true that I want the relegation of Manchester City, but it’s true that I want justice. Often times, small clubs are penalized for exceeding their budget by as little as 5 or 10 euros, in accordance with the rules of the Financial Fair Play. I myself have endured three grueling years at Roma due to these limitations. “I don’t think it’s right that these big financial sharks always manage to find a way to evade the rules. I’m just a man of football, I love football.” “I like justice in football”
