Mourinho pushing for Man City's Kovacic
Mourinho is a long-time admirer of Kovacic, who was impressive in his first season at Manchester City, operating in that deep-lying role.
The 30-year-old midfielder made 46 appearances across all competitions for Pep Guardiola's side last season, showcasing his versatility and skill on the pitch.
However, it remains to be seen whether the Croatia international would be interested in making the switch to Turkey or if Manchester City are even open to a sale, considering the lack of cover for Rodri in midfield.
Mourinho's interest in Kovacic is understandable, given the midfielder's ability to control the tempo of the game and create scoring opportunities for his teammates.
Kovacic's experience playing for top-tier clubs like Manchester City and Chelsea would also make him a valuable asset for Fenerbahce.
