Ex-Barcelona boss Guardiola will take over at Bayern Munich this summer, while Pellegrini, also linked with Chelsea, currently coaches Spanish side Malaga.The 50-year-old, who has won the Champions League with Porto and Inter Milan, claimed two Premier League titles, one FA Cup and twice lifted the League Cup during his three years in charge at Chelsea between 2004 and 2007. Mourinho gave the strongest indication yet that he wants to return to England in general and to Stamford Bridge in particular, after Real's Champions League exit to Borussia Dortmund on Tuesday.Kenyon, who was chief executive at Chelsea between 2003 and 2009, explained: "We brought Jose in because we had John Terry, Petr Cech, Joe Cole and Frank Lampard but we had no experience of winning anything. We went from not winning the league for 50 years to winning two on the bounce, we broke up Manchester United and Arsenal's dominance. There was a key component of starting to establish Chelsea as a major European force.His agent Jorge Mendes has also been reported as telling Italy's Radio Mana Mana there was an "80%" chance the Portuguese would be returning to Chelsea.He was integral to the ongoing success after he left because of some of the structures were put in with him being very much at the forefront. He has continued to be part of Chelsea and he has a remarkable rapport with the fans.Mourinho was whistled at by Real Madrid fans at the Bernabeu on Saturday before their 4-3 win against Real Valladolid in La Liga as they showed their support for out-of-favour goalkeeper and captain Iker Casillas, who has been left on the bench by Mourinho.
