| Jose Mourinho |
Jose Mourinho, 52, has signed a new deal at Stamford Bridge as Chelsea manager for another four years.
He will remain Chelsea manager till at least 2019 with the newly signed contract.
The Portugese, who last season led the Blues to the Premier League title and the Capital One Cup signed the new four year deal and said he is happy to be staying for a long time.
"I said when I returned here that I have a special feeling for this club and nothing changed," he said according to the BBC sport.
"I think this is a normal thing for me to sign a new contract. It is important we have this continuity and I hope we can enjoy more success in the future - for the fans, the players and the club.
"It is the club closest to my heart and I am very happy to know I will be staying here for a long time."
Mourinho has the best win rate (69%) of any manager to have taken charge of 15 or more Premier League games and will lead his side out in their season opener against Swansea on Saturday at 17:30 BST.
Last season, Chelsea were the only club in all four divisions to remain unbeaten at home, winning the title with three matches to spare.
