Chelsea Transfers: 10 DREAM Signings Jose Mourinho Could Make This Month

7. Raphael Varane

There's also the possibility Mourinho could sign Raphael Varane when commencing his search for a new centre-half this winter. For similar reasons to Schar and Zouma, Chelsea need ideally need a new centre-back to fill in for John Terry and David Luiz. And Mourinho knows Varane well from his Real Madrid days, signing the Frenchman while in charge of the La Liga giants in 2011. The 20-year-old showed great promise at Real and soon became a first-team regular under Mourinho's Blancos, making nine and then 15 Liga appearances in his first and second season. Today he is considered one of the most gifted young defenders in the world and Mourinho would surely love to be re-united with his one-time player.
