ISTANBUL — Former Real Madrid boss Jose Mourinho has been unveiled as the new coach of Fenerbahce soccer club, tasked with winning the club a first league title since 2014 after six runner-up finishes. Following days of strong indications that Mourinho was to take charge of the Istanbul club, it said in a post on social media platform X early Sunday that the Portuguese manager was to attend a ceremony at its Sukru Saracoglu stadium. Thousands of fans later greeted Mourinho at the stadium where the 61-year-old triggered huge cheers by picking up the Fenerbahce jersey and saying "This shirt is my skin."
