They are not going to face each other because they are in different finals, but a duel has already arisen between the finalists of the Champions League, Manchester City, and those of the Europa League, Roma. Translation: duel between Jose Mourinho and Pep Guardiola. Although to be more precise, the duel was started by Mourinho and, for now, Pep has not followed.
After qualifying for the Europa League final with Roma, who will play against Sevilla in Budapest next June, José Mourinho gave his qualification more merit by commenting that he does not have the resources of other coaches nor the millions of other entities.
“The only teams that do not suffer are those that have 40 or 70 million players on the bench. On Wednesday, players like Julián Álvarez, Foden and Mahre entered the second half at City”, commented The Special One.
In addition, Mourinho explained how the austere economy of the Italian team works and what it has cost them to reach the final: “We lose 4 or 5 players and we suffer to win. In Rome the one who enters is because it is his turn. We invested 7 million in the market and we are in the final. It’s extraordinary what we did.”
At the moment Pep Guardiola has not answered any of this and we will have to wait to see if he continues the duel with Mourinho or if he decides to ignore this direct statement from the Portuguese.
