Antonio Cassano is infuriated about Jose Mourinho’s recent comments regarding his career and a fight involving Marko Livaja, continuing the feud with a frustrated video.
The former Bari and Roma forward sparked the drama when comparing the Portuguese coach to his Lazio counterpart Maurizio Sarri, saying that the Giallorossi manager ‘doesn’t give a f**k about football’ and that he’s simply ‘cinema’.
Mourinho was calm when asked about these comments and show his press conference acumen with his response, highlighting how Cassano ‘just wants to enjoy himself’ and referring to a dressing fight with Livaja.
Things have not ended there, however, as Cassano has now responded with a video on his Instagram story, where he explained the Livaja incident and again sniped at Mourinho.
“Someone is writing bullsh*t about what Mourinho said, that then the Livaja situation comes and it gets tough. In my life the hard moments were from zero to 18, because where I lived you had to be smart and clever, or you didn’t go on.
“With Livaja we said words to each other, about everything, me to him and him to me, after two days we were friends as before. My mother taught me, dear Mourinho, not to be afraid of anything or anyone.
“Since someone ratted you out, we had a fight but there were twenty people who got in the way, it never came to a physical confrontation.
“Tell the bunny pretending to know that I never took anything, that’s bullshit. Another sh*tty look, besides how you make your teams play.
“But that’s a minor question we’ll deal with later. In my life I’ve never taken them from anyone, I’ve probably been lucky. I say this to you and to the sailors, goodbye Mourinho.”
Cassano is no stranger to controversy, regularly making divisive comments regarding players and teams, frustrating many fans and onlookers. At the start of February, the former forward highlighted his dislike of Mourinho, suggesting he was ‘never a great coach’.
