Mourinho has placed his trust in the teenager French defender Kurt Zouma who was signed from St Etienne for £12.5m (Independent) #CFC

He'll be our third CB, HUGE season ahead for him. If he's at the right level, he'll replace Terry.

Interesting article on him and another reason why we shouldn't be looking to loan out Kalas. Kalas is ahead of Zouma in his development right now and I'm not convinced Iva, JT or Cahill is enough for an entire season and I'm not convinced being a reserve player is good for Zouma's development..

The journalists can stop linking Raphael Varane to Chelsea because Jose already has his next great CB in Kurt Zouma who will be a beast in blue.

[RoyalBlues 4,050]

Basically, Zouma have a great opportunity to impress Jose in preseason. If he perform well and deliver solid performances, there is a chance he could be in the squad next season. I personally think, he could make it.

I don't think Kalas is ahead of Zouma... Zouma has played more first team football at a higher level than Kalas. It's more the other way around.

Heard we're monitoring Varane. Don't think we need Zouma if we get him.

Don't think we need Varane, we already have Zouma.

[The Skipper 20,593]

Going to have a big role to play next season IMO.

Top lad.

[RoyalBlues 4,050]

Interesting that what Mourinho said to him, he want Zouma to do "Varane" in Chelsea. I think Jose will include Zouma in the squad for next season.

[The Skipper 20,593]

"I really wanted to go to Chelsea. Did I have other offers? Yes, there were Internazionale, Monaco and Manchester United. All those clubs called," he told France Football magazine. When I had a phone call from Mourinho, I thought someone was imitating him. First, I could hardly talk. It is very flattering to have a call from one of the best coaches in the world."

"He told me I have an interesting profile and he wanted to do with me what he did with Raphael Varane at Real Madrid. Thanks to him he became one of the best French defenders. When you hear that, you reply yes immediately. Being one of the best French defenders is an objective for me."

Mourinho told him that he wants to do a 'Varane' with him. I think he'll have a pretty big role for us next season, hence why I don't think we're after a CB really.

Or maybe he just wanted him to sign.

I hope he'll have a role, I think we're covered enough at the CBs department with JT Cahill and Iva, and Zouma could surely get some minutes in some league games and also the cups.

love it when anyone says they snubbed United, City, Arsenal or Liverpool for us. A la Hazard, Willian & co.
