Jose Mourinho wants to raid his former club Chelsea for all-action midfielder Ramires.

Mourinho is a big fan of the Brazilian, who has been watched extensively by Real Madrid scouts this season, the report revealed.

But he knows that it would take a huge bid to persuade Chelsea to part with Ramires, who has established himself as a key member of the first-team since his £19.8m move from Benfica two years ago.
