WHAT HAPPENED?
The Fenerbahce presidential aspirant claimed that he was recently in touch with the former Chelsea, Manchester United and Real Madrid boss and vowed to bring him to Turkey if he becomes the club chief.

WHAT HAS BEEN SAID
Speaking to reporters, Yildirim said: "I met Jose Mourinho face to face last week. I told him: 'Fenerbahce needs you and you need Fenerbahce.' He listened to me sincerely. My friends are talking to his agents. If we win, I will bring Jose Mourinho."
WHAT NEXT FOR FENERBAHCE?
With only two games to go into the season, Fenerbahce currently find themselves six points behind league leaders Galatasaray whom they next face in the Turkish Super Lig.
