Mourinho happy Anzhi's Eto'o prefers Chelsea but calm on situation

Samuel Eto'o came out this week and said he would love to again work with Jose Mourinho.

The Cameroon striker, currently with mega-rich Russian club Anzhi Makhachkala, played under the returned Chelsea boss at Inter Milan and would love to reunite with the Portuguese.

Upon hearing the news, Mourinho was very pleased but admitted a deal to bring Eto'o to Stamford Bridge was not imminent.

"I am always happy that somebody that worked with me previously is happy to be back and work with me again," said Mourinho.

"That is a good feeling that I have, when I read something that Samuel is keen. It is fantastic for us, but we are going to see what happens."
