Agent: 'Kevin de Bruyne happy to stay at Chelsea'

Chelsea manager Jose Mourinho has contacted Kevin de Bruyne to outline his plans for the midfielder next season, according to the player's agent.

De Bruyne had been linked with a potential move to Borussia Dortmund, but agent Patrick de Koster has revealed that the Belgian international is "very happy" to remain at Stamford Bridge.

De Koster told Goal.com: "Kevin spoke to Jose Mourinho on the phone while he was in America and he clearly expressed that he wants him to play a part at Chelsea next season.

"Mourinho told him that he wants to make him a better player and this is very good news.

"The desire of Kevin is just to play football and now he has received the news that Mourinho sees a role for him at Chelsea, he is very happy to stay."

The 21-year-old scored 10 goals in 33 games on loan at Werder Bremen last season.
