Sevilla stars Suso and Papu Gomez warn that the biggest element of concern for them in the Europa League Final against Roma is not any of the players, but coach Jose Mourinho.
They will face off for the trophy on May 31 in Budapest and while Sevilla are serial winners, so is the Special One.
“Mourinho is a supercoach, he is accustomed to playing this type of match,” former Milan winger Suso told Sky Sport Italia.
Sevilla needed extra time to get the better of Juventus in the semi-final, while Roma held out for a 1-0 aggregate victory over Bayer Leverkusen.
All those clubs came down from the Champions League group stage, so only Roma remain in the Europa League who started the tournament back in September.
Mourinho is a legend of European football who has won all five European Finals that he participated in over the years with FC Porto, Inter, Manchester United, Chelsea and Roma.
His only defeats were in the European Super Cup with Chelsea in 2013 and Manchester United in 2017.
“Roma are a big European club, they have important players and we need to be wary, because Mourinho knows how to prepare these matches very well,” added former Atalanta forward and now Sevilla star Papu Gomez.
“I was teammates with Leonardo Spinazzola, so I know he is one of the best Italian full-backs. I think it’s going to be an entertaining game for the fans.”
