Rangers praises Mourinho ahead of Fenerbahçe match

In the UEFA Europa League Round of 16, Fenerbahçe will host Scottish side Rangers in Kadıköy on Thursday, March 6. The Scottish team's experienced defender, Leon Balogun, made notable remarks about both Fenerbahçe and Jose Mourinho ahead of the match.

Speaking after their loss to Motherwell in the Scottish Premiership over the weekend, Balogun said of Mourinho, "I think I only played against him once. He was in charge of Manchester United at the time, and we, as Brighton, won 3-2. So, it is an unforgettable memory for me."

Emphasizing that Mourinho has a special place in the football world, Balogun added, "He is a huge character and one of the most respected managers in football. I find what he says in press conferences interesting. Some say he is arrogant, but I think he is a special personality who makes football fun."

Commenting on the Fenerbahçe match, the Nigerian footballer said, "If we want to get results, we must take big steps starting from today. Being back in European competition is a great opportunity for us. We need to give everything we have on the pitch."
