Mourinho has given Chen Zhong enough respect.
He would communicate with Chen Zhong to express his thoughts and requirements, and even jokingly said, "Chen, you must ensure your mood and health are great; everyone knows your importance to this team."
He also said similar things to Zlatan Ibrahimovic before, although at that time he spoke mainly to Ibrahimovic's girlfriend, asking her to take care of Ibrahimovic's emotions and health and keep him happy.
In the first leg of the Spanish Super Cup, Real Madrid will face Sevilla away.
In this match, Mourinho allowed Spain's national players like Casillas and Ramos to rest, and also gave Chen Zhong, who participated in all the warm-up matches, a short break.
Faced with Real Madrid's underestimation, Sevilla exploded with incredible power at their home ground.
They defeated Real Madrid 2-0.
In this match, Real Madrid used seven Castilla players.
