Mile Svilar: “Working with Mourinho is a dream come true.”

Second-choice goalkeeper Mile Svilar was interview along with Felix Afena-Gyan following yesterday’s friendly with Sunderland.

Svilar spoke to the club’s channels, describing the collaboration with José Mourinho and first-choice shot-stopper Rui Patricio.


“It’s amazing to be able to work with Mourinho, it’s a dream come true for me.”

“I came to a big club with great fans. I’m settling in well, there are several Portuguese-speaking players, such as Ibañez, also some members of the technical staff and goalkeeper coach Nuno Santos who help me out along the way.”

“Rui Patricio arrived only 2-3 days ago, so we had little time to talk, we only trained together a couple of times.”

“It won’t be a fight between the two of us, each of us will do our job and our best for the team.”
