Mourinho explains Shaw decision
Chelsea manager Jose Mourinho has explained his reasons for rejecting the chance to sign Luke Shaw from Southampton this summer, with the young left-back moving to Manchester United instead.
The Blues boss believes the kind of money United paid for the 19-year-old would not have gone down well with the other players at Stamford Bridge, according to the Daily Mirror.
“If we pay to a 19-year-old boy what we were being asked for, to sign Luke Shaw, we are dead,” Mourinho is quoted as saying. “We would have killed our stability with financial fair play, and killed the stability in our dressing room.”
