Borussia Dortmund coach Klopp denies saying Mourinho will return to Chelsea

Borussia Dortmund coach Jurgen Klopp denies reports of telling friends Jose Mourinho would be joining Chelsea in the summer.

It was reported that Klopp had claimed the Real Madrid coach had confirmed to him he was returning to Stamford Bridge.

"It's a ridiculous story. I've never told anyone that Mourinho is going to Chelsea or another club. I'm not a person who does things like this," snapped Klopp.

"I heard this story before the game against Fortuna and I had to make sure that people knew I was very sad and angry, because it is totally false, a story invented one hundred percent.

"Mourinho is a colleague, a friend and it would never occur to me to play with something like that."
