For his friend Peseiro, Mourinho backs Super Eagles to lift trophy

 

Former Chelsea coach, Jose Mourinho, has backed the Super Eagles against the Elephants of Cote d’Ivoire ahead of the African Cup of Nations finals.

 

In an interview with FIVE shared on its X handle on Sunday, February 11, Mourinho said: “My best friend in football is in the final.

Jose (Peseiro), my big friend, for him a huge opportunity to make history because never a Portuguese coach won the African cup.”
