Jose Mourinho will continue to receive mega money from Chelsea FC as a result of his dismissal as manager last week.

Chelsea changed things up last Thursday as they sacked Jose Mourinho after a loss against Leicester City proved to be the final straw for owner Roman Abramovich. With the club racking up nine losses in 16 Premier League games to that point, the Russian billionaire eventually severed ties with the Special One, ending his second stint in charge at Stamford Bridge.

Mourinho had signed a new four-year contract this summer after leading the Blues to both Premier League and League Cup glory last season. Consequently, the club will reportedly pay the price for dispensing with his services. The Telegraph details the supposed terms of the severance package.

Under the terms of his Stamford Bridge departure, it is believed Mourinho will continue to be paid by Chelsea until he finds another job. It is also understood, however, that Chelsea will have to make up the shortfall in any wage cut Mourinho accepts at a new club until the end of this season.
