Furious AS Roma Manager Mourinho Blasts 'Scums' For Blaming Ghanaian Teen For Wijnaldum's Injury

• Jose Mourinho has angrily reacted to rumours Ghanaian forward Felix Afena-Gyan is responsible for Goerginio Wijnaldum's injury
• The Dutch midfielder suffered an injury while preparing for Monday night's Serie A clash against Cremonese
• Chris Smalling scored the only goal as AS Roma beat the Serie A newcomers Cremonese to make it two wins in the new season

Jose Mourinho has strongly reacted to widespread reports that Ghanaian forward Felix Afena-Gyan injured PSG loanee Georginio Wijnaldum.

The Dutchman has been ruled out for weeks after fracturing his tibia in training while preparing for the game against Cremonese.

In post on Instagram, Mourinho rubbished reports that Afena-Gyan caused Wijnaldum's injury describing people behind those stories as scums.

"Sometimes football can be s**t. In only 2 weeks, Gini became one of us because of his human qualities (his football qualities we already knew)," wrote Mourinho as he rallied support for Wijnaldum.

"Sadly, in a very unfortunate accident he had a bad injury that will keep him away from playing for a long time.

"But it's not just football to be s**t sometimes, people can also be...

"Those who initiated the rumours that a top kid like Felix could be responsible for what happened are real scum.

"Let's all be together tonight: we play for @officialasroma, for @gwijnaldum and for @ohenegyanfelix9."

Mourinho led AS Roma to a hard-fought victory on Monday night against Serie A newcomers Cremonese. Chris Smalling's 65th minute goal was enough for the Italian giants.

Meanwhile, Felix Afena-Gyan could only make the bench as he watched the entire game on the sidelines.

AS Roma are having a good start to the season, having won all two games so far.
