Fenerbahce manager, José Mourinho, has played down rumours that he could try to bring Cristiano Ronaldo to the Turkish club.
Mourinho was responding to speculations that the pair had spoken on the phone about a potential move.
Mourinho coached Ronaldo during his Real Madrid tenure, winning the LaLiga title in 2011-12 and the Copa del Rey the year prior.
When asked about the possibility of signing the Al Nassr forward, whose contract expires at the end of the 2025 season, Mourinho told reporters he is more likely to catch up with him former player over a meal.
“News about Cristiano Ronaldo to Fenerbahce are ridiculous,” the Portuguese coach said.
“Cristiano might come to Istanbul to eat because it’s right in the middle of the road between Saudi and Portugal. Or maybe he’ll come see his old friend José, we can eat at my hotel.”
