Youssef En-Nesyri has been in decline since his arrival at Fenerbahçe. The former Sevilla striker is struggling to find his feet in his new club, arousing the anger of Turkish supporters and the press. Despite his team’s victory against Union Saint-Gilloise (2-1) in the Europa League last Thursday, the Atlas Lion was criticized for his modest performance.

But José Mourinho tried to justify the performance of the Moroccan player during this meeting. “En-Nesyri had a performance similar to that of the team. Although he was not exceptional, his attitude was positive. The team was not at its best, but it still got the victory,” said the Portuguese technician.

He will continue: “En-Nesyri made his contribution, which allowed us to introduce Dzeko in good conditions. We hope En-Nesyri will score, and he too is looking to find the net again.” The Moroccan international arrived at Fenerbahçe this summer from Sevilla for 20 million euros.
