The bill relates to his stay at the Four Seasons Hotel between July 2024 and August 2025 and reportedly amounts to around €750,000. At this point, it is unclear whether the coach or the club is responsible for settling the sum. No official comment has been released.

During his Turkish adventure, Mourinho failed to make a mark: he couldn't surpass Galatasaray in the title race and exited the European stage after a defeat in the qualifiers for the 2025/2026 Champions League.
