Jose Mourinho has warned he will begin a clearout of players after claiming Chelsea are out of the title race

Blues boss has accused some players of lacking the ‘personality’ to perform against smaller clubs

It is clear to everybody that Chelsea next year want to bring a striker,’ said Mourinho.

‘What’s the future for the others? The ones who are staying are competing with the striker we are bringing in.


‘It is normal at the end of the season if players who are not playing a lot or players who are not happy and prefer a change will go. That is also part of the market.

As for the final six games of the season, he added: ‘The easiest thing to do is to perform when you are not playing for something big. If, in the last part of the season, we have an unbelievable performance and some player is going to perform in a beautiful way, that’s easy.

‘The difficult thing is to perform when you feel the heat. Because of that some are big and some are not so big.’
