Fenerbahçe manager José Mourinho has responded to Galatasaray’s Mauro Icardi as their online spat continues.
Earlier this week, Mourinho accused their rivals of playing "handball" in an Instagram post, criticizing the refereeing standards in the Turkish Süper Lig.
Icardi fired back by calling Mourinho "The Crying One," mocking the Portuguese manager’s famous "The Special One" nickname.
During a press conference on Wednesday, Mourinho stated, "I am sure that I am a special one, not the special one. With 25 years of career and 26 titles—not just one match. My career spans 25 years."
Regarding Icardi's comments, Mourinho said, "Icardi is a GOAT. I refuse to comment on a GOAT's words. He's too significant—I do not comment."
Last month, Mourinho claimed that there is a lot of "scandal" in Turkish Süper Lig games following a controversial match between league leaders Galatasaray and Göztepe.
