Roma head coach Jose Mourinho shared his memories of working with Mohamed Salah and Kevin De Bruyne at Chelsea.
According to the coach, both players really wanted to change clubs and made the right choice.
"They left of their own free will. They didn't want to wait and their choice was right. When they tell me that I let Salah go, I think the opposite: I signed him... I initiated the purchase of Salah. He was going to move to Liverpool from "Basel", but I negotiated and agreed for him to move to Chelsea.
Regarding Kevin, we went on a pre-season tour to Asia... Chelsea wanted to move Kevin to a German club on loan, but I insisted that he stay with me. He stayed and became a main player in the Premier League. Later, at the European Super Cup in Prague with Bayern, he did not take the field, and the next day he wanted to leave!
Both were impatient and their success proves they were right,” Mourinho said in an interview with YouTube channel The Obi One Podcast.
