Samuel Eto'o is keen on linking up with his former coach José Mourinho at Chelsea after being made available for transfer by Anzhi Makhachkala.
Eto'o, who played under Mourinho at Inter Milan, has been with the Russian side for the last couple of seasons, earning a stunning €20 million per season.
But Anzhi are now undergoing something of a fire sale due to financial problems, and a reunion with Mourinho sounds good to the 32-year-old.
"There is only one José Mourinho," Eto'o told reporters. "I have played under a lot of great coaches but there is no other character in the game like José.
"We had a lot of success together at Inter Milan. I would like to have the chance to play under him again, because it is never boring when José is around.
"Chelsea are a great team. When we have all the offers on the table then I will discuss with my agent and see what my next step is."
