The Sunday TImes is reporting that Jose Mourinho has secured a deal with Chelsea and will take over for Rafa, and will be paid a kings ransom over the course of a four year deal.
“The Portuguese, who won back-to-back Premier League titles in his first stint at the club, will become the highest-paid manager in the competition’s history, pocketing more than £8.5m a year after tax from a £50m-plus deal.”
While his new contract is still to be formally signed, the plan is to do so soon after his final match as Real Madrid manager on June 1.
This isn’t official and we have no clue on the accuracy of this – since there is no confirmation coming out of either camp, Chelsea or from Jose – but dammitman… £50m!!!! Thats a LOT of bread. There won’t be any outsized expectations or anything…..
