Mourinho would go for the new Cristiano Ronaldo for his team; the shocking transfer that would upset FC Barcelona fans

Jose Mourinho will be coaching in Turkey next season, as Fenerbahçe appointed him a few weeks ago. The ‘Special One’ has caused lots of excitement in Turkish football, and he will cause more if he manages to convince the club to sign a player who was seen as the new Cristiano Ronaldo. The player that Jose Mourinho wants to sign is Atletico Madrid’s Joao Felix. The Portuguese attacker played with FC Barcelona in the 23/24 season, but he was there as a loan player from Atletico Madrid. It is not guaranteed that FC Barcelona will keep Joao Felix next season since they have to negotiate with Atletico Madrid over a deal. Sport reports that Jose Mourinho wants to take Joao Felix to Fenerbahçe. Jorge Mendes and the coach will try to convince the player after the Euros. Felix is in the Portuguese squad in EURO 2024, but he is not a guaranteed starter in the team as he did not fully convince the national team manager, Roberto Martinez, after his season with FC Barcelona.

Sport reports that the door to Fenerbahçe will only open for Joao Felix if it becomes evident that he cannot continue at Barça. For the player, Barça continues to be his priority. It will be a tough move to pull since Turkish football may not be an attractive league for Felix to play in, but it could convince him if Atletico doesn’t plan on playing him next season.

Fenerbahçe will be playing Champions League football next season, which could be a good factor for the Turkish side to sign Felix. Being coached by Jose Mourinho is another, and it would be easy for him to adapt since they are both from Portugal. Felix would likely need a loan move to Fenerbahçe. The team finished second in the Super Lig in Turkey with 99 points, and Galatasaray won the league with 102 points.

Joao Felix stats 23/24
