Fenerbahçe head coach José Mourinho has confirmed undergoing a minor surgical procedure a few days ago but assured fans that reports about his health problems have been greatly exaggerated.
Quote: "I wish everyone a happy holiday season. May this time be filled with love and happiness for you and your families.
For those of you who expressed concern, I can confirm that the reports about my surgery were significantly exaggerated. It was just a quick and minor procedure. I will return to training on the first day after the holidays as usual. I haven’t missed a session in 25 years, and I don’t intend to start now," Mourinho wrote on his Instagram account.
Reminder: Mourinho is currently managing Fenerbahçe in Turkey, but a return to England could be on the cards. Recent reports suggest that a Premier League club is prepared to buy out his contract.
