Samuel Eto'o honoured for inspiring anti-racism stand.
Caption this photo of Jose Mourinho and Samuel Eto'o.
It’s not like there’s something really special about this photo or a hug but if you got Samuel Eto’o’s “fool” and “puppet” memo few months back, (and then the Thank You remark this week) you would understand why I shared this photo.
It’s their second contact (the first was a handshake) since Samuel left Chelsea. And seeing them smoke peace pipe is so super cool. Mourinho’s tongue though…..
By the way, can we have the Special One and CR7 do this?

Samuel Eto'o joins Everton on a two-year deal
Former Chelsea player, Samuel Eto’o has joined Everton on a 2-year free transfer deal. He will wear the No 5 shIrt at Goodison Park and be paid £130,000 a week. The Cameroon international tweeted, “‘Officially an Everton player…!!! Let’s get ready for a new and ambitious Challenge!!!’
The 33 year-old added. ” I have been very impressed by the style of play Everton adopt. I could see straight away that at this club I will have the opportunity to play football. I had the chance to speak with the manager over the last few days and we agreed that this was what we would do.
‘I was impressed with his enthusiasm but also by the knowledge of football that Roberto Martinez carries, his vision of football and how he reads football. I still think I can learn a great deal from him here.’
Everton coach, Roberto Martinez wrote, “For someone who has achieved nearly everything, he still has the desire he had at 15 when he went to Spain and showed what he could do. For many reasons he has got a point to prove. We are very excited and I think Everton is the perfect home for him. The fans will make him ready and feel sharp but we have got to be a bit patient with the fitness levels and make sure he is back to his best.’
