No way to sign Jose?

Speaking in the London Evening Times, a Chelsea insider has insisted that the Portugese manager has promised Roman Abramovich that he will take the reigns at Stamford Bridge next year. .

"Jose has promised he will be here," a Chelsea source said.

"There are no problems apart from the ones Liverpool seem to think exist. Jose is not willing to talk to anyone else and all the details of his contract are virtually concluded. But there cannot be any announcements until after the Champions League Final. We trust him to keep his word."
