🗣️ José Mourinho: "I was ten years old when my father was fired on Christmas Day. He was a soccer coach, and his team’s results weren’t good. They had lost a match one or two days before Christmas. On Christmas Day, while we were sitting at the table for lunch, the phone rang. A brief call from a club executive: you’re fired. The news hit like a blow. No one finished eating, we left the table, and sadness filled the house. Even the Christmas presents went unopened that day. From that moment, I made my decision: I would be a coach. I would fight until the day my father’s name was known all over the world. To this day, I wear clothes similar to his, and I have them specially made so they resemble his style. My father is my only role model in this world."


Timo Werner on San Jose: “I think that’s the case. I’ve been to America often—San Francisco, the Bay Area—but I haven’t been to San Jose yet. So I couldn’t say much about that. But in the meetings with the coach, he already showed me pictures—he had PowerPoints, videos, which they cut together for me. I think I was invited to the 49ers three or four times, to the Warriors, to the Sharks. So they’ve made it very clear what other attractions the cities have as well. And that’s why I’m just excited. I’ve already been to L.A., so I have a rough idea of how things work in California. San Francisco, I’ve informed myself, since a lot of friends have been there—friends of friends, family of friends live there. And they’ve all been very, very enthusiastic about it. So I’m really looking forward to it. Of course, it’s still a leap into the unknown, and you have to get used to it. I think America is still somewhat different from Europe. But we’re really excited—me, my family, and also my girlfriend, who will surely come over at some point. We’re all really excited about the area. It’s Silicon Valley. I mean, it’s world-famous. Some of the most famous people live there, at least sometimes. And I’m just excited to go there, discover a new culture, and yeah, to go to a place that’s kind of like—my favorite vacation spot in Europe is Mallorca. This is kind of like the Mallorca of America. And that’s why I’m just looking forward to it.” Translated from German #Quakes74 #MLS
