Mourinho: “United can still win the 2017/18 title, they have to pay me the bonus…”
Coach refers to Manchester City trial
José Mourinho returns to Manchester United this Thursday, who play against Fenerbahçe, but did not fail to address the accusations made against Manchester City for allegedly having violated the Premier League’s financial rules during his time at Old Trafford.
The manager joked and said he could still win the title after finishing second behind City in the 2017/18 season.
“We won the Europa League and finished second in the Premier League. I think we still have a chance to win that league, maybe they’ll punish Manchester City with points and we’ll win that league. [In that case] they’ll have to pay me the bonus and give me the [championship] medal,” he joked, quoted by the BBC.
Manchester City are on trial for 115 financial offences, in a charge brought by the Premier League.
