Before the match, Mourinho affirmed that he is still Chelsea’s Special One, a sentiment supported by the enthusiastic welcome he received at the club.
Long-serving staff member Thresa Conneely greeted him with an affectionate hug as he arrived.
Brian Pullman, another cherished figure who dedicated 55 years to Chelsea before retiring last year, presented him with his favorite biscuits.
Pullman, a familiar face in the media room, embraced Mourinho warmly and set some custard creams on the table for him.
This kind gesture is a tradition that harks back to Mourinho’s first tenure as Chelsea manager from 2004 to 2006.
The Portuguese manager eagerly enjoyed a biscuit before addressing the press, reminiscent of a similar occasion in 2010 after his Inter Milan team defeated Chelsea in the Champions League.
Fans embraced this heartfelt moment, with one commenting: “That’s so adorable.”
Another noted, “That’s wonderful; respect and class are timeless.”
