Former Chelsea manager Jose Mourinho has contacted the club to declare his interest in a third managerial spell at Stamford Bridge but was met with a firm stance over Graham Potter’s future, according to reports.
The Portuguese head coach is no doubt the greatest manager in Chelsea‘s history, even proclaiming himself to be number one.
The Daily Mail says Mourinho is eager to return to England next season amid frustration at a lack of financial backing from Roma.

This included back-to-back titles as well as a remarkable third on his return to the club for a second stint.
