Jose Mourinho has returned to Stamford Bridge after agreeing to take over as Chelsea manager for the second time.The 50-year-old Portuguese, who guided Chelsea to back-to-back Barclays Premier League titles in his first two seasons in charge, returns to the west London club after an absence of almost six-years.

Mourinho, who has twice won the UEFA Champions League with Porto and Inter Milan, has won three league titles since leaving Chelsea in September 2007, guiding Inter to two Serie A triumphs and winning La Liga at Real Madrid, where he has been in charge for the last three seasons.Mourinho first took over at Chelsea on 2 June 2004 and in his inaugural campaign the Blues romped to their first domestic title in 50 years with a record Premier League points haul of 95 and an as yet unsurpassed defensive record of only 15 goals conceded.

The Blues also won the League Cup that season and reached the last four of the Champions League for the second year in a row. The following campaign Chelsea successfully defended their title Barclays Premier League title. In his last full season at the club Mourinho helped Chelsea achieve a cup double as the Blues lifted both the FA Cup and the League Cup. He left Stamford Bridge in September 2007.

Last season Chelsea qualified for the Champions League by finishing third in the English top flight under the guidance of interim manager Rafael Benitez, who took over from Roberto Di Matteo in November to lead his side to UEFA Europa League victory.

Thanks for the information man .

I guess chelsea are gonna be back to smashing the EPL again

Welcome back Mourinho! :)

About time it was official/leaked <3.

It's been removed immediately after they noticed but some managed to take a screenshot *wink wink*.

The Premier League has apologised to Chelsea after an article, which appeared to confirm Jose Mourinho as the club's new manager, was published on its official website by mistake.

Headlined 'Jose Mourinho makes Chelsea return', the story has since been removed from premierleague.com, after an official confirmed it had been published in error.

Mourinho, who managed Chelsea between 2004 and 2007, is widely tipped to return to Stamford Bridge following a three-season stint at Real Madrid which came to an end on Saturday.

A Premier League spokesman said: "It was a publishing error. We took it down as soon as we were notified of it, and we've spoken to and apologised to Chelsea.

"We have no prior knowledge of any movement or any announcement."

The Premier League indicated the story was being prepared by the website ahead of an anticipated change of clubs by Mourinho but was published by mistake as the result of either a system failure or human error.

LOL. Bullshit.^^^

Everyone already knows that he's going to the Bridge anyways, so why hide it? ;)

Because the club should be the first to officially anounce the signing, not the league's website.

^ That's why Dynastian :)

mourinho buys too many black ppl

haha

Okay, now its official. On the club website.
