Chelsea boss Jose Mourinho has once again insisted that
he wants Arjen Robben to stay at the club.
The Blues have flown out to America for a pre-season training camp
and Dutch star Robben is with them - despite Real Madrid efforts to
sign him.
Florent Malouda's arrival was seen by many as the precursor to
Robben's exit, but Mourinho has denied this.
"When you specifically talk about Arjen's name I want to make it
very, very clear that the fact we have signed Malouda does not open
the door for him to leave," Mourinho told the website.
"I want to keep them both, and I would like to keep Arjen.
"He has two more years left on his contract with the club and as
everyone knows Chelsea is in negotiation process with him to
negotiate a new contract and hopefully we can do it and he
stays."
Away from the Robben situation, Mourinho is very happy with his
squad, which boasts five new faces.
"If last season was not a perfect season in terms of results we
wanted, we know what problems we had, and we know them as
individuals and this is the squad we believe in," he said.
