Mourinho calm over Chelsea contract situation

Chelsea boss Jose Mourinho is happy with his contract situation.

Chelsea will also be looking to extend Mourinho's contract, which currently has two years left to run.

But Mourinho insists it is not a major priority and explained: "I don't need a contract. Mr (Roman) Abramovich, in my opinion, has to be very calm because he has me, I am in his hands.

"I want to stay, I don't want to leave. I'm not asking for new contract or a better contract. I am very calm.

"He doesn't have to be worried, he has me. If he wants me to stay I stay, the day he wants me to leave, I leave.

"I am already working for the next season so I know I'm staying. More important than a two-year or 10-year contract is my desire to stay and his desire for me to stay."
