Didier Drogba has publicly defended former Chelsea manager Jose Mourinho amidst accusations of racism following a recent match between Fenerbahce and Galatasaray. After Mourinho referred to the opposing bench's behavior, Galatasaray accused him of making racist statements. Drogba, who played for Galatasaray and knows Mourinho well, emphasized that he has known Mourinho for 25 years and firmly believes he is not racist. Mourinho is reportedly exploring legal actions against the allegations that they claim do not reflect his history or relationships with players of diverse backgrounds.
"I've seen the recent comments about Jose Mourinho. Trust me when I tell you I have known Jose for 25 years and he is not a racist and history [past and recent] is there to prove it."
"We all know how passionate and heated rivalries can be, and I've been lucky enough to experience it."
"Sources close to Mourinho say he has been angered by the allegations and is assessing his legal options."
