JOSE MOURINHO will fly to London on June 2 – and sign a four-year contract at Chelsea worth £250,000 a week.
Mourinho will jet in the day after his final game in charge of Real Madrid to seal his mega deal.
That is a commitment of around £50m from owner Roman Abramovich for the second coming of The Special One.
Mourinho is so keen to get started in his new job he will not waste any time after Real’s final game against Osasuna at the Bernabeu.
He will be accompanied on the trip by his fitness coach Rui Faria and goalkeeping coach Silvino Louro.
But there is no prospect of Chelsea signing Cristiano Ronaldo from Madrid as the superstar’s relationship with Mourinho has broken down.
Although Mourinho is coming to London on Sunday week – he bought a home in the capital last year – there are no plans yet to formally announce him as the new boss at Stamford Bridge.
His salary this time is around three times what he was paid when he first arrived at the club in 2004.
Real Madrid and Mourinho, 50, confirmed they will part company at the end of the season.
And because the split has been mutually agreed, Chelsea will not have to pay any compensation to the Spanish giants.
