Mourinho to quit Chelsea?

There's increasing speculation in the media that Jose Mourinho will walk out on Chelsea, possibly as soon as this summer, some suggest that if Chelsea win the Champions League this season it will be his last game in charge. Last week Jose gave an in-depth and very revealing interview to the Times in which he hinted strongly about managing an Italian club at some point in the future.

Whether or not this was a veiled threat to Roman Abramovich and Peter Kenyon about meddling in team selection affairs is a mute point - because in the same interview the Portuguese manager also stated that Schevchenko isn't one of his nine 'untouchable players' at Stamford Bridge. The Ukrainian striker is of course big pals with Abramovich. Added to which fresh reports now claim Chelsea are trying to tie-up players like Drogba on longer term deals in case Jose does walk out this summer. It wouldn't be stretching things too far to suggest that many rivals would like to see the back of Mourinho - basically because he's too good. IF he does go then no one else will find it so easy and that is even with Abramovich's cash mountain.
