Samuel Eto'o makes light of Jose Mourinho's age jibeq

Istanbul: Samuel Eto'o has laughed off the leaked remarks from Chelsea manager Jose Mourinho questioning his age.

"I am Samuel Eto'o, what can I say?" he told Sky Sports News after the Galatasaray match.

"If at 36 and 37 I can score three goals at Manchester United it means that I still have some juice and I can even score until I am 50.

"But I really don't care, what is really important to me is to give my maximum to the team, to help them to win some titles."

The build-up to the match was dominated by comments made in private by the Portuguese.

Canal Plus broadcast video of Mourinho saying: "The problem with Chelsea is I lack a striker. Eto'o is 32 years old, maybe 35, who knows?"
