Turkish giants, Fenerbahce Sports Club, have announced the departure of Portuguese manager, Jose Mourinho, after just over a year in charge.
The Portuguese’s departure comes two days after the club were eliminated from the Champions League play-offs by Benfica.
In a statement released on Friday on its X account, the club said it had parted ways with the former Chelsea and Real Madrid boss, who took over at the beginning of the 2024/2025 season.
“Our professional football first-team’s technical director, Jose Mourinho, who has been carrying out his duties starting from the 2024-2025 season, has parted ways with us.
“We thank him for his efforts for our team until today and wish him success in his future career,” the statement read.
Mourinho, 62, joined Fenerbahce in June 2024.
However, his spell ended prematurely after a mixed run of results in domestic and European competitions.
