Fiorentina signing Mohamed Salah has explained leaving Chelsea this week.
Salah was a pawn in Chelsea's £26.8million deadline day purchase of Juan Cuadrado.
"At the moment I don't intend to return to Chelsea," Salah said.
"I want to do well with Fiorentina. I spoke with Mourinho and told him I wanted to leave Chelsea and he was fine."
Salah also discussed Cuadrado's switch to Chelsea and claimed the midfielder will adapt well to life in London.
"The Italian league is of a high standard, I think that those [such as Cuadrado] do it simply to broaden their horizons and have new experiences," he said.
"Cuadrado is a great player, I respect him a lot. I know he was well-loved in Florence, and I hope that I too can soon win a place in their [the fans'] hearts."
