"I have a great relationship with almost all of my players and it is normal that these rumours spread" - Jose Mourinho

Mourinho confirmed he would like to work with some of his former players again but admitted Chelsea could block any move for their players.

Mourinho said: "I think it is normal as a consequence of the relationship with my players. Almost all of them want to work with me again in the future and the same goes for me.

"I have a great relationship with almost all of my players and it is normal that these rumours spread but it depends on whether Chelsea want to sell. There has got to be a relation between what one club wants and what another club wants to do.

"The president knows what I would like, but I am not discussing names with the press."
