Former Chelsea chief executive Peter Kenyon has admitted that Chelsea would find it 'hard to resist' re-appointing Jose Mourinho.
The Real Madrid boss has been heavily linked with a move back to the Premier League club over the summer.
And the one-time board member has conceded that re-hiring the Portuguese tactician would be a good move.
“You've one of the best coaches in the world, best owners and one of the best clubs, a hard combination to resist,” he told Radio 5 live.
“I would need some very strong other candidates to look at.
“I think Pep Guardiola would have been a good candidate, but he is not available. Manuel Pellegrini would also be looked at.
“But if I was looking at Pellegrini or Jose, Jose would win hands down.”
