Season › 2013-14 › News Mourinho hints at real reason for Lukaku loan Michael Kenrick , 29 November, 0comments | Jump to most recent A strange outburst by Chelsea manager Jose Mourinho suggests there may be something more to Romelu Lukaku's season-long loan at Everton, which continues to puzzle journalists each time the big man scores... But following comments from the Romelu Lukaku this week that Mourinho has not contacted him to check on his progress, the Chelsea boss has hit back at the Belgian and warned him to watch his words. ‘Romelu likes to speak. He is a young boy and he likes to speak,' said Mourinho in today's pre-match press conference. 'But the only thing he didn't say was why he went to Everton on loan, that's the only thing he never says. ‘My last contact with him was to tell him exactly that. “Why do you never say why you are not here?” So it's something he should [say] because he likes to speak, it's something he should say.' But when pressed to reveal the reasons for Lukaku's temporary exit from Stamford Bridge, Mourinho declined to comment. ‘I keep private my conversations with my players,' he added. ‘There are things in our lives we have to keep for ethical reasons.'
