Jose Mourinho has signed a new deal at Stamford Bridge.
While the deal was not a surprise - it being part of the initial contract negotiations when the Special One returned to SW6 two years ago, it does suggest that the club has been very happy with Mourinho's performance on the field and, just as importantly, off it too.
Should all go to plan, Mourinho will be bringing trophies to south-west London to at least 2019.
Mourinho said: "If the club is happy, I am happy. I think this is a normal thing for me to sign a new contract. It is important we have this continuity and I hope we can enjoy more success in the future - for the fans, the players and the club.
"I said when I returned here two years ago that I have a special feeling for this club and nothing changed. It is the club closest to my heart and I am very happy to know I will be staying here for a long time."
Mourinho's greatest ally at the Bridge, director Marina Granovskaia, who is Roman Abramovich's ear in the football and club boardroom, said: "We are very happy that Jose has committed four more years to the club. Since his arrival two years ago he has carefully developed the playing squad and brought trophies to Stamford Bridge. We look forward to the next four years and the continued success of the team."
While Mourinho continues to have such support and he brings success, there can be no doubt that his power base at the Bridge will continue to rise.
Is it a good idea for Roman to give Jose a new contract?
