The rivalry between José Mourinho and Pep Guardiola reignited after recent comments from both managers. Mourinho, known for his sharp remarks, said, “Pep Guardiola told me yesterday he won six trophies, and I won three, but I won fairly and cleanly.”
Mourinho didn’t hold back, adding, “I don’t want to win by dealing with 150 lawsuits. If I lose, I congratulate my opponent.”
Guardiola responded with a firm defense. Speaking to reporters, he stated, “I would say to José Mourinho that we are innocent until proven guilty.”
He clarified his stance, saying, “If I ever offended him, I am so sorry, but it was a joke.”
Guardiola closed with a bold reminder, “The fact is, Mourinho has three Premier League titles, and I have six! This is a fact.”
This exchange adds to the ongoing tension between two of football’s greatest managers, reigniting debates among fans.
