Mourinho Is Still A Respected Manager – Pedro Neto

Chelsea forward Pedro Neto has said that Mourinho is still a respected football manager. He recently had his say while speaking to the press, and fans have been reacting.

According to him, Mourinho was hired by Benfica because the club believes that he still has what it takes to positively impact any team he manages.

He added that alongside legends like Ronaldo and Figo, Jose will always be one of the biggest names in Portugal.

His words, “You cannot have a divided opinion on him (Mourinho). What he did for Portugal, what he did for Portuguese people, what he has won.

People in Portugal respect him a lot and know the value that he has. Benfica hired him for that reason. He is one of the biggest names in Portugal with [Cristiano] Ronaldo and [Luis] Figo.

It would be a privilege to be managed by Jose Mourinho, who wouldn’t want to be managed by him?”

WOW.

Chelsea Football Club is an English professional football club based in Fulham, West London. Founded in 1905, they play their home games at Stamford Bridge.

The club competes in the Premier League, the top division of English football. They won their first major honour, the League championship, in 1955. The club won the FA Cup for the first time in 1970, their first European honour, the Cup Winners’ Cup, in 1971, and became the third English club to win the Club World Cup in 2022.

On 7 May 2022, Chelsea confirmed that terms have been agreed for a new ownership group, led by Todd Boehly, Clearlake Capital, Mark Walter and Hansjörg Wyss, to acquire the club. The group was later known as BlueCo.

The UK government approved the £4.25bn takeover, ending Abramovich’s 19-year ownership of the club. Bruce Buck, who served as chairman since 2003, was replaced by Boehly, while long-serving club director and de facto sporting director Marina Granovskaia left, as did Petr Čech from the role of technical and performance advisor.
