Read the full statement:
Chelsea Football Club and Jose Mourinho have today parted company by mutual consent.
All at Chelsea thank Jose for his immense contribution since he returned as manager in the summer of 2013.
His three league titles, FA Cup, Community Shield and three League Cup wins over two spells make him the most successful manager in our 110-year history. But both Jose and the board agreed results have not been good enough this season and believe it is in the best interests of both parties to go our separate ways.
The club wishes to make clear Jose leaves us on good terms and will always remain a much-loved, respected and significant figure at Chelsea. His legacy at Stamford Bridge and in England has long been guaranteed and he will always be warmly welcomed back to Stamford Bridge.
The club’s focus is now on ensuring our talented squad reaches its potential.
There will be no further comment until a new appointment is made.
It would be recalled that the ‘Special One’ who returned to the club in June 2013 helped Chelsea finished the 2014/2015 league season eight points clear as winners and also won the League Cup.
‘The Blues’ lost their ninth game of this season to surprise league leaders, Leicester City, a feat which condemned them to 16th position after 16 Premier League games games.
However, former Real Madrid coach, Juande Ramos as well as Bayern Munich coach, Pep Guardiola, who have vowed not to renew his contract with the German club are major contenders for the job.
