The day Mourinho made Mohamed Salah cry: “He charged it”

That is well known Jose Mourinho did not see the talent of Mohamed Salah and of kevin debruyne when he had them both at Chelsea and they weren’t given a chance. What is not known, however, is that the Portuguese coach made the Egyptian cry at the time.

explained it John Obi Mikel, who was part of the squad and lived directly while Mou spent three towns with his partner. “I think Salah is playing badly. Mourinho entered the locker room and attacked him, he grabbed him effusively. He was crying, and what happened next was that Mourinho wouldn’t let him back on the field in the second half.. He charges it, it’s easier to change it and say ‘you’re not playing well, sit down, you’re not coming back on the field’. But he hit him and charged,” the Nigerian midfielder told Dubai Eye.

Obi Mikelwho saw both the Egyptian and debruyne Taking his first steps in elite football, he was surprised by how they turned out: “Kevin was always mischievous, he was alone, he felt bad. You can’t get anything from him. But now when I see him play.. . what fun. It’s great to see it. When I look at players like them, who have become the best in the world, it’s unbelievable. They’ve gotten stronger physically, faster. I don’t know what happened to them!”
