Tensions are running high at Fenerbahçe! Allan Saint-Maximin was left out of José Mourinho’s squad for the Europa League match against Glasgow Rangers. The French winger didn’t take it lightly and responded with a cryptic Instagram post:
🗣️ “When a lie takes the elevator, the truth takes the stairs. It takes longer, but it eventually gets there.”
This message quickly caught the attention of fans and media, hinting at frustration over his exclusion.
💥 Mourinho Fires Back
Never one to hold back, José Mourinho responded with a sharp comment in his press conference:
🗣️ “I didn’t know Saint-Maximin had a talent for poetry. If a player doesn’t train well, arrives late, and isn’t ready to play, he needs an elevator—because he gets tired too quickly in the stairs.”
A brutal response that leaves no doubt: Mourinho suggests that Saint-Maximin’s absence was due to his own lack of professionalism, not unfair treatment.
🚨 Trouble at Fenerbahçe?
This public spat raises questions about the player’s future at the club. Since joining from Al-Ahli in 2023, Saint-Maximin has been criticized for inconsistency and discipline issues. Now, with Mourinho in charge, the expectations are higher than ever.
Will the two bury the hatchet, or is this the start of a longer fallout?
