Jose Mourinho will give Victor Moses chance at Chelsea

Jose Mourinho confirmed he is going to give Victor Moses a chance to revive his Chelsea career this season.

The Super Eagles winger has not played a competitive game for the Blues since Mourinho returned as manager in 2013, he was loaned out to Liverpool and Stoke over the past two years and the Chelsea boss believes the 24-year-old has made good enough progress to be given an opportunity with the champions.

Tottenham have been linked with an £8 million move for him, but speaking after Moses was one of Chelsea's better performers in a shock 4-2 defeat against New York Red Bulls, Mourinho said: "I see him fitting in. He’s strong, he’s experienced, he knows the Premier League well, he’s fast, he’s aggressive.

"Okay, he has to play with us. But I’m happy with his week, with his 45 minutes and the next match (against Paris Saint Germain) he will have 45 more minutes. But Victor has had an evolution in the last couple of years."

Moses joined from Wigan for £9m in 2012 and scored 10 goals in his first 12 months with Chelsea's first team, five of which helped the club claim the Europa League.
