Chelsea transfers: Jose Mourinho hints the Blues could sell loan stars

Jose Mourinho has hinted that Chelsea could cash in on their players who are currently out on loan.

The Blues have the likes of Belgian duo Romelu Lukaku and Thibaut Courtois currently plying their trade away from the west London side in a bid to gain more experience.

Not all of them will have a career at Chelsea but all of them are important in this new financial organisation

Atletico Madrid have been linked with a permanent swoop for Courtois with Petr Cech still number one at the Blues, whilst Lukaku is reported to be keen to stay at Everton.

And Mourinho, who sold Kevin De Bruyne in January, hinted that Chelsea could sell their stars who are currently on loan.

“Chelsea adapted well to the situation,” Mourinho said.

“When you see [Kevin] De Bruyne, who played three or four matches, give us a big profit, there are other players who maybe don’t play a single match for Chelsea and we will look to sell them at a profit.

“We have had to organise ourselves in a different way. Before me, Chelsea did fantastic work in this level: Lukaku, De Bruyne, Courtois, Thorgan Hazard and Piazon.

“Not all of them will have a career at Chelsea but all of them are important in this new financial organisation.”
