Mourinho Debunks Claims of Wishing Relegation on Manchester City
Fenerbahce coach Jose Mourinho has dismissed reports suggesting he wanted Pep Guardiola’s Manchester City relegated from the Premier League amid allegations of financial breaches.
Manchester City, who have dominated the Premier League with four consecutive titles, face possible fines and points deductions for over a decade of alleged financial irregularities.
However, Mourinho clarified his stance during an interview with Turkish outlet Fanatik, expressing his desire for fair competition.
“I want to win, but I want to win cleanly and fairly. If I can’t win cleanly, I’d rather lose,” Mourinho stated. “He won six trophies, and I won three, but I won fairly and cleanly. I don’t want to win by dealing with 115 cases.”
Mourinho also emphasized his good relationship with Guardiola, having worked together for three years. “Pep and I know we love each other.
It is not true that I want them to be relegated; what is true is that I want justice. Small teams are penalized for exceeding financial limits by small amounts, yet the big teams seem to get away with more.”
The Fenerbahce coach further recalled his challenges with Financial Fair Play (FFP) rules during his time at AS Roma, lamenting the inconsistencies in their application.
“I suffered due to the limits at Roma. All I want is justice, but there are no ill feelings between us,” Mourinho concluded.
It has been reported that the Ebola virus is rising again and there have been some cases. This has caused fear in many, with talks of different viruses spreading.
Amid this concern, the Federal Airports Authority of Nigeria (FAAN) reassured the people that no trace of Ebola has been confirmed in the country, despite the outbreak in Africa.
FAAN shared that they have been on the lookout for travellers who may have symptoms, and so far there is none.
It has been reported that the Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board, Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board (JAMB), has finally released the withheld results of 279 students.
It can be recalled that some results were held due to investigations of cheating. Some results proved to have traces of malpractice and were cancelled, but the ones without traces have been released and the students can finally move on.
JAMB also shared additional advice for students that might have not seen theirs: “Candidates whose results have not yet been released are advised to check their status by sending UTMERESULT to 55019 or 66019 using the same phone number used for registration to view their released results.”
It was reported that former Nigerian president Goodluck Jonathan has allegedly purchased a presidential candidate form for the 2027 elections.
It can be noted that Jonathan served as Nigeria’s president from 2010 to 2015.
This information was revealed by Sani Useni, a special assistant who made the claim. Many reacted to the news, with some expressing interest in seeing Jonathan return to power after staying relatively quiet politically since his administration ended.
However, Jonathan has not yet addressed the public or officially shared any presidential ambition.
