"I congratulate David Okereke. He is the first player to score against all three teams that I managed."
Mourinho noted that Okereke has consistently performed well against his teams, adding:
"He scored against my teams while playing for Venezia, Cremonese and Gaziantep."
The 27-year-old, originally signed to Cremonese has spent the last 12 months on loan; first to Torino and now at Gaziantep for the rest of the season.
