Former Chelsea boss Jose Mourinho may have hinted at a return to the club amid links with a switch, having revealed he could have left AS Roma earlier this season. The links come as the Blues struggle for form under new boss Graham Potter, who has had a tough start to life in west London.
The former Brighton head coach replaced the highly popular Thomas Tuchel at the helm earlier this season, tasked with fulfilling the philosophy laid out by the new ownership. With over £600million spent on promising talent in the first two windows under Boehly-Clearlake, expectations may have risen further.
Chelsea sit ninth in the table, though they remain only six points off of rivals Tottenham in fifth, which would guarantee Europa League football. "We're confident with what we're doing, I think the club has done a good job," Potter said on the transfer business and the task ahead of him. "Now my job is to improve the team."
