Fenerbahce has parted ways with coach Jose Mourinho.
The decision comes after the team's elimination from the Champions League playoffs.
Mourinho's tenure saw 37 wins in 62 matches across all competitions.

Turkish Super Lig club Fenerbahce has mutually agreed to part ways with head coach Jose Mourinho, as announced on Friday. This decision follows the team's recent exit from the UEFA Champions League playoffs, where they fell to Benfica, with a 1-0 loss in the second leg sealing their fate, according to aa and trtglobal.

Mourinho, who took charge of Fenerbahce in July 2024 after leaving AS Roma, struggled to meet expectations amid inconsistent performances. His record includes 37 wins, 14 draws, and 11 losses in 62 matches, revealing the challenges faced during his tenure, according to reuters and dawn.

The club's statement acknowledged the "mutual agreement" to terminate Mourinho's contract, emphasizing their hopes of regaining competitiveness in the league, aiming for their first Turkish Super Lig title since 2014, as reported by dawn and trtglobal. Fenerbahce has yet to announce Mourinho's successor.
