Jose Mourinho Suggests More New Signings Could Arrive at Chelsea This Summer

Chelsea manager Jose Mourinho has hinted that he is looking to make more signings this summer to successfully carry Chelsea through a period

of transition, Mail Online report.

The Blues boss has already signed Cesc Fabregas this summer and is waiting to confirm a deal for Spain striker Diego Costa, but the Special One has hinted there may well be more arrivals on the horizon. He does, however, retain that his side could finish anywhere between top of the league and sixth next season, such is the strength of the teams competing for the Premier League title.

Mourinho said: "Next season will be very, very difficult, even more so.

"I know Chelsea will be better, but maybe the other teams will be better too, so it will again be the kind of league where you don't know if you're going to finish first or finish sixth. In this moment I have to think and feel and say we want to finish first.

"I enjoy this club, I like the club, and I like the league. I love the way people live football in this country. I was a little part of the process that made Chelsea a force in the last decade, and I come back with the dream to try to be a little part again of the next decade.

"After 10 years of titles and great moments, this is a moment to rebuild again, because teams don't last for ever. Clubs yes, but not the teams. In the same club you have to build another team."

One player who will stay at Stamford Bridge is Eden Hazard, and Mourinho identifies the Belgian attacker as a key cog in his team who will develop into a better player next season.

"I understand this beauty and these magic moments he brings to the game are what the fans enjoy the most. People like Eden bring the magic and win matches in one action. They have the flair and the artist's touch of the football.

"He had a big evolution and he scored more goals than before. His work-rate for the team improved a lot too. [He will have] more appetite for the next season to be even better
