Chelsea expect Ricardo Carvalho for preseason training this week.
Carvalho is expected to report for pre-season training as scheduled on Monday despite the Portugal international revealing his desire to link-up again with Jose Mourinho at Real Madrid.
Chelsea refused to comment on Carvalho's contract claims but were adamant he would be reporting next week with the rest of the club's World Cup stars. The Blues are unlikely to allow Carvalho to leave with Brazilian defender Alex ruled out for the start of the season.
