Chelsea to Appoint Jose Mourinho as New Manager, £60m Cristiano Ronaldo Bid to Follow

Bernabeu boss set for Stamford
Bridge return.
Chelsea are reportedly set to
welcome back Jose Mourinho as
Blues boss this summer and the
Portuguese manager’s first move
on returning to Stamford Bridge
will be an astonishing £60m bid
for Real Madrid star Cristiano
Ronaldo.
The Sunday Express believe that
Mourinho is all but signed up to
takeover from interim boss Rafa
Benitez at the end of the season
and that such a move would have
been completed earlier had Real
Madrid not beaten Man United to
book their spot in the Champions
League quarter-finals.
The 50 year old will look to leave
the Bernabeu on good terms by
looking to clinch either a Copa Del
Rey or Champions League title
before he moves back to West
London. However those good
terms wouldn’t last all that long if
Mourinho then returns in pursuit of
the club’s prized asset Cristiano
Ronaldo.
This source claims that Ronaldo is
not happy at Real Madrid and
Mourinho believes a bid in the
region of £60m, well within Roman
Abramovich’s budget, could be
enough to persuade the La Liga
champions to sell.
Ronaldo has been an incredible
success since his £80m move to
Real Madrid in the summer of
2009, notching up a phenomenal
190 goals in 188 games. A move
back to the Premier League would
be something of a surprise,
especially a move back to any
other side in the English top tier
than Man United.
Abramovich knows his side could
dearly do with a proven marksman
to spearhead the Blues attack, his
£50m investment in Fernando
Torres has backfired in a big way
and a move to place Ronaldo in an
attack that also includes Juan
Mata and Eden Hazard would
clearly be a huge statement of
intent by Chelsea and one that
could re-ignite the club’s push to
mount a genuine Premier League
title push.
