Mourinho, who is about to become the manager of Fenerbahce, responded in jest, inviting Bellingham to join Fenerbahce. Later, Mourinho confirmed his new role with Fenerbahce in a video message to fans, expressing his excitement to start the journey with them the next day at Kadikoy.
Reflecting on the victory, an emotional Bellingham expressed his deep gratitude to his parents. He shared with TNT Sports that he had always dreamed of playing in such games and that people often told him he couldn’t do it. However, nights like this reminded him that all the hard work was worth it.
He further added that his parents had made countless sacrifices for him, and knowing that his little brother looks up to him made this the best night of his life.
