Abramovich considers paying whopping £25m compensation to bring Mourinho back to Chelsea

Roman Abramovich is ready to pay whatever it takes to get Jose Mourinho back at Chelsea after settling his differences with the Real Madrid manager.

The Russian owner and Mourinho parted on bad terms in 2007 but relations have improved to such an extent since that wages of more than £9million a year - after tax - and a compensation bill from Madrid of £25m would be sanctioned.
