"Chelsea" newcomer S. Eto'o: I used to hate J. Mourinho © EuroFootball.com

Arriving at London's "Chelsea" and rejoining the team with Jose Mourinho, Cameroonian Samuel Eto'o revealed that he once disliked the coach known as "The Special One."

S. Eto'o worked with J. Mourinho at Milan's "Inter" club. According to the forward, before their first meeting, he felt animosity towards the Portuguese strategist.

"Even before meeting at the 'Inter' club, we did not know each other personally. Therefore, our relationship was tense. I have said that I will never play for a team where Jose works. But God knows best. He showed that I was wrong. We became friends, and now Jose is my coach again," the footballer told "The Sun."

In the 2009-2010 season, J. Mourinho helped Milan's "Inter" team win three major trophies. It was then that S. Eto'o's opinion about the coach changed.

S. Eto'o played for the Machachkala "Anzhi" club last season, but he arrived at "Chelsea" this summer for 7 million pounds sterling.
