Carvalho wants Mourinho reunion

(GSM) – Chelsea defender Ricardo Carvalho has revealed his wish to reunite with former boss Jose Mourinho at Real Madrid.

Carvalho, who has been linked with a move away from Stamford Bridge this summer, played under Mourinho at Chelsea and Porto.

And now, the 32-year-old Portugal defender claims he has an agreement in place with Chelsea to let him go this summer and is keen on a switch to the Madrid giants.

“If there was a possibility to sign for Madrid I would go there right now swimming or running,” Carvalho told Spanish sports newspaper AS. “Chelsea have a commitment with me to let me go this summer, for reasons which those responsible at the club and I know.

“It would be a dream to be able to play for Madrid, which for me is the best club in the world, and to do so under the orders of the best coach in the history of football.

“With Mourinho I experienced two marvellous periods at Porto and Chelsea. To have the opportunity to win another Champions League with him at Real Madrid would be something tremendous.”

The only hindrance could be Chelsea’s unwillingness to sell the defender to the club managed by Mourinho, whose relationship with Blues’ owner Roman Abramovich soured as the coach’s tenure at Stamford Bridge came to a close.
