The recent remarks by José Mourinho regarding Samuel Eto’o’s age have sparked speculation and tension within the Chelsea camp. Mourinho’s comment about Eto’o’s age, suggesting uncertainty about his actual age, has added fuel to the fire of growing discontent between the manager and the player.
The fallout from Mourinho’s statement was evident in Eto’o’s dissatisfaction and in the manager’s tactical decisions, such as Eto’o’s exclusion from crucial matches against Galatasaray and Fulham. Despite Mourinho’s attempts to downplay the situation and reassure that there is no issue with Eto’o, rumors of a possible departure for the Cameroonian striker have continued to circulate.
Reports linking Eto’o with a return to Inter Milan have only fueled speculation about his future at Chelsea. While Mourinho has attempted to defend his decision-making and reaffirm his support for Eto’o, the atmosphere within the club remains tense, with doubts lingering about the player’s role and future at Chelsea.
