Are you returning to Madrid? Mourinho's plan that is not Arda Guller

The long-term injury to Jaden Oosterwolde has left a significant void in Fenerbahçe's defense. Faced with this situation, José Mourinho has set his sights on a luxury target: Reinildo Mandava, left-back for Atlético de Madrid.

A profile that fits perfectly

The Mozambican player stands out for his defensive solidity, his ability to join the attack, and his experience in top-level football. These qualities make him an ideal profile to strengthen the Turkish team's defense and cover Oosterwolde's absence.

Why Mandava for Fenerbahçe?

• Experience and leadership: With a consolidated career in European football, Mandava would bring experience and leadership to Fenerbahçe's defense.
• Versatility: His ability to play both as a left-back and a center-back makes him a very versatile player.
• Adaptability: He has shown himself capable of adapting to different tactical systems, making it easier for him to integrate into Mourinho's team.

The obstacles to overcome

However, the operation will not be easy. Mandava is a key player in Diego Simeone's scheme and Atlético de Madrid would not be willing to let him go easily, at least not in this winter market. In addition, the player still has a contract with the rojiblanco club until June 2025.
