Chelsea boss Mourinho has no doubts over Remy fitness

Chelsea boss Jose Mourinho has no doubts over the fitness of incoming striker Loic Remy.

The QPR striker underwent a medical at Liverpool earlier this month but the deal fell through amid rumours he had failed a medical.

But speaking after his side's 6-3 victory over Everton, Chelsea boss Jose Mourinho insisted Remy did "not have a problem".

"I know that we're trying since yesterday (Friday) to get Loic Remy, since we knew Fernando was leaving," he told Sky Sports.

"Now it's time to make some calls and have news.

"We have a fantastic doctor and I trust him completely. They will identify any problem.

"The information we have from specialists in different areas is that he does not have a problem."
