Jose Mourinho in no rush to sign new contract with Chelsea

Mourinho in no rush to sign contract

Jose Mourinho has admitted that he is in no hurry to put pen to paper on a new contract with Chelsea, but insists that he wants to stay at Stamford Bridge.

Overnight, reports emerged claiming that the Portuguese coach is due to be offered a new four-year contract.

Mourinho's current terms do not expire until 2017, and the Premier League-winning manager has admitted that the possibility of signing a new contract is not at the forefront of his mind.

"I have two years of my contract, I want to stay," Mourinho said in this afternoon's press conference. "I'm not waiting for offers.

"I won't give any space for speculation or interest of other clubs. I want to stay, I don't want to go. I don't need a contract. My story is a non-story."

The 52-year-old returned to Chelsea for a second spell of management back in 2013.
