José Mourinho jokes about Fortnite: “footballers spend all night playing that shit”

The AS Roma coach is not passionate about the success of battle royale among his footballers.

The success of Fortnite since 2017 has generated all kinds of opinions in all kinds of different arenas. Where for some it is their favorite game to play with friends, for others it is a title that does not appeal to them at all. And then there’s José Mourinho , soccer great and current AS Roma coach, to whom Epic Games’ free battle royale seems directly like a “nightmare . ” Why? Well, because it keeps its players up all night, it’s that simple.

The official account of Roma has published this weekend a video where José Mourinho answers fans’ questions on all kinds of topics. And one of them was related to Fortnite. Of course, the former Real Madrid coach gave his opinion with that style that characterizes him: “It’s a nightmare. Footballers stay up all night playing that sh * t , and the next day they have a game!” Luckily he doesn’t train Ousmane Dembelé …

Of course, the coach’s smile denoted the humorous tone of his answer, although it seems clear that José Mourinho is not passionate about Fortnite. Not surprisingly, last year we already discovered that Mourinho’s true passion is Football Manager .

Coaches and footballers issues aside, this morning we learned that Ariana Grande will hold several concerts in Fortnite this weekend. A renowned collaboration that comes just a few weeks after the LeBron James skin debuted in the battle royale , and days after Epic has introduced a Ferrari into Fortnite games .
