Yellow Cards, Racism Allegations And Nose Grabs: Jose Mourinho's Turbulent Tenure At Fenerbahce

Jose Mourinho s tenure at Fenerbahce has been marked by several controversial moments that align with his reputation for drama and provocation.

Since his move to Turkey , there is a long list of notable incidents, with the latest one happening on Wednesday night when he grabbed Galatasaray coach Okan Buruk and squeezed his nose following a heated Turkish Cup tie between the teams.

IOL Sport looks at all of Mourinhos controversial moments ever since he moved to Turkey in July 2024.

Mourinho received a yellow card just 15 minutes into his Turkish Super Lig debut against Adana Demirspor. His animated protests against referee decisions set the tone for the yellow card, even though Fenerbahe won 2-1.

During a match against Antalyaspor at the end of September 2024, Mourinho protested a disallowed goal by displaying a still image of the incident on a laptop, which he placed in front of a TV camera. The act earned him another yellow card.
