Getafe signing Mayoral hits out at Roma coach Mourinho

Getafe striker Borja Mayoral has hit out at Roma coach Jose Mourinho.

Mayoral had been 18 months into a two-year loan from Real Madrid with option to buy for €20m. However, he left Roma last month for Getafe.

“I arrive with a great deal of enthusiasm after several months of not playing, but I also feel angry, because I think I deserved to play more minutes," said Mayoral at his Getafe presentation press conference.

“I have a lot of pent-up energy after the season I had at Roma and think I can prove the striker that I really am. Playing for Spain is an objective and a dream that I want to make come true."

As it stands, Mayoral will return to Real Madrid in the summer.
