  • Apparently, Mourinho is keen on bringing several of his former colleagues whilst boss of Chelsea to his new side, Inter, this summer.



    Mourinho has reportedly been given a £50 million budget to bring in new players, and it seems as if Chelsea could be set for a wash of bids from the Portuguese boss.



    Mourinho has also admitted he would like to bring in Frank Lampard, but this is unlikely seeing as Chelsea have apparently offered Lampard a staggering £130,000 a week to stay at the club.



    However, a £18 million offer for Ghanaian international Essien could prove too hard to refuse; and the player could be set to link up with his old boss again shortly.
