It is known that Jose Mourinho was unable to see and read the talent of the Egyptian stars Mohamed Salah and the Belgian Kevin De Bruyne, when they were young at Chelsea, and did not give them opportunities, but what was not known was that the Portuguese coach made the “Pharaoh” cry at that time.
This is what John Obi Mikel, who was part of the team at the time, said: “I think Salah was playing badly, so Mourinho entered the dressing room and attacked him and grabbed him excessively .. He was crying, and what happened next is that Mourinho did not allow him to return to the field.” In the second half.”
“It was easier to change Salah and tell him you are not playing well, sit down, you will not return to the field, but he injured him and accused him,” the Nigerian midfielder added.
Obi Mikel, who saw both the Egyptian and De Bruyne take their first steps in the world of football, expressed his amazement at what they had become. A joy to see him.”
He added, “When I look at two players like them, who have become the best in the world, it is unbelievable. They have become stronger physically, faster… I don’t know what happened to them.”
