Jose
Mourinho has reignited his feud with Iker Casillas by highlighting the
goalkeeper’s ability to now win the Europa League following Porto’s
Champions League exit.
Mourinho
has been accused of instigating Casillas downfall at Madrid after he
dropped the Spaniard during his final season in charge at the Santiago
Bernabeu.
Mourinho’s
decision to bench Casillas subsequently caused a split in the Madrid
dressing room, while the Portuguese had accused one of his players of
being a “rat” for leaking information on his side’s tactics to the
Spanish press.
But
when asked about his relationship with Casillas after Chelsea’s 2-0 win
over Porto on Wednesday evening, Mourinho told Spanish television
station MEGA:
“No problem. I’ve done my job and he has done his, and he has done well.
“Now Casillas can win the only trophy he hasn’t won. The Europa League.”
