Jose Mourinho risks facing a ban after making a remarkable accusation following Fenerbahce's crushing 1-0 defeat to Ole Gunnar Solskjaer's Beskitas.

Fenerbahce suffered a bruising defeat to Beskitas, who ran out 1-0 winners following Gedson Fernandes' first-half goal.

The defeat leaves the Portuguese's team eight points adrift of league leaders Galatasaray, while Solskjaer's side sit in fourth place.

Mourinho, who was appointed last summer, has voiced his frustration about the Turkish authorities and referees throughout his time in Turkey.

And he continued to air his concerns about the level of officiating in Turkey's top flight by making an astonishing accusation after Sunday's defeat.

He claims the outcome of the 2024/25 Super Lig season was 'determined' before the league even started.

"When some of your players don't perform well enough, it affects your collective performance as well." he said. "The outcome of the league was determined before the league even started.

"The games we lost at home were decisive. VAR decisions, referee decisions. I am so tired of talking about these. I have no power, nothing changes, but this is the situation, this is the truth."

Despite only joining Fenerbahce last summer, it has been suggested that Mourinho won't see out the final year of his contract.

Pressed on his future, he replied: "I am not speaking about next season. I will speak internally, not to the media. If there is something, out of respect to the president and the board, I will not bring it into the public."

The 62-year-old has already been hit with a four-match ban following his comments about Turkish referees earlier in the season.

He was also fined after he criticised the match officials in a press conference following a league match.

Mourinho could be punished once again by the Turkish FA following his latest comments about Turkish referees.

As for Besiktas, they can finish as high as third place as Solskjaer challenged his team to replicate their performance against Fenerbahce in their remaining fixtures.

"The next four games will decide a lot," he said. "Can they play the next four games like this one?

"After Gala we were hopeless. We must have a different reaction after this."
