During an event organised by the National Association of Football Managers in Portugal, Jose Mourinho was questioned on the qualities of Bruno Fernandes and Joao Felix.
Both players have already been compared to Cristiano Ronaldo, something that the ex-Manchester United coach does not agree with.
"It's ridiculous to compare them both with Cristiano Ronaldo, no matter how much talent they possess", commented the Portuguese coach, who has always been direct with his words.
Mourinho has seen an outpouring of euphoria upon his return to Portugal due to the strong performances the Sporting Lisbon and Benfica players. "They are two great players and can go to great clubs, but they are not Cristiano Ronaldo", Mourinho concluded.
