Mourinho remains vague on future

CHELSEA manager Jose Mourinho has refused to clear up speculation surrounding his future at Stamford Bridge.

The Portuguese was asked to clarify his position after weekend stories suggested he would be leaving west London with claims of a rift between Mourinho, owner Roman Abramovich and chief executive Peter Kenyon.

Speaking after the Premiership champions 1-1 draw at Wycombe in the Carling Cup semi-final first leg.

Mourinho said: “My position is not important.

“What is important is Chelsea, not me, and Chelsea are in a good position — almost in the final of Carling Cup, the last 16 of the Champions League, the fourth round of the FA Cup and second in the league.

‘‘That is the way I have worked all my career. I’m not important, it is the club.”
