Chelsea boss Jose Mourinho is in talks over a new and improved contract with Chelsea according to his agent Jorge Mendes. There had been rumours of discontent from the Chelsea boss, who felt he was not given full backing by the club in his row with UEFA. But now it would seem that everything is fine and he is expected to sign a new deal worth five million a year within the next couple of days.

"The negotiations are going well and nearing an end,” stated Mendes speaking to The London Evening Standard. "It will be concluded very soon, maybe even on Thursday."

With the Carling cup already in the bag, and the Premiership looking extremely likely it looks like Chelsea have fond the right man to lead them and they are unwilling to let him go.
