Chelsea Will Hand Mourinho The Funds To Go On A Huge Spending Spree in Summer: The Daily EPL

Watch out Fergie! Mourinho is back, and he’ll be going on a huge spending spree this summer at Stamford Bridge to bring in some of the biggest names in the sport, according to a story in the Evening Standard.

The players on Mourinho’s shopping list include Robert Lewandowski and Radamel Falcao, as well as several current Real Madrid stars.

This could be one of the most interesting summer transfer windows in quite some time — not the quantity of players bought and sold, but the quality of those that are brought in to strengthen many of the top sides in England.
