Coach Capello on Mourinho’s dismissal: something similar happened to me in Russia
Former head coach of the Russian national team Fabio Capello appreciated the dismissal of the Portuguese Jose Mourinho from the Italian Roma. His words are quoted by Football Italia.
The specialist recalled that something similar happened to him in Russia. “I was heading to the airport after the defeat to Austria when I got a call saying it was all over. But it was Russia,” Capello said.
On January 16, it became known that Mourinho left the post of head coach, which he had held since 2021. It was noted that the change of coaching staff meets the current interests of the team. The post of the Portuguese was taken by the former footballer of the team, Daniele De Rossi.
Capello led the Russian national team from 2012 to 2015. Under him, the team won the right to compete in the final part of the 2014 World Cup. The contract with the Italian was terminated after the team lost to Austria with a score of 0:1 in the Euro 2016 qualifying round.
