Boro boss Aitor Karanka was Jose Mourinho's assistant at Real Madrid and the pair are still in regular contact
Aitor Karanka could be picking up the phone to Chelsea boss Jose Mourinho this week as he looks to beef up Boro for the new campaign.
Karanka was Mourinho’s assistant at Real Madrid and the pair are still in regular contact.
And the Boro boss admits that could help bring in more top talent from Stamford Bridge.
Boro signed both Kenneth Omeruo and Nathaniel Chalobah on loanfrom the Blues in January and Karanka will be exploring that route again.
“Jose and I have a fantastic relationship and that can help,” he said.
“But we have to work in the same way that we worked in the past.
“The most important thing is Chelsea will be happy sending players to Middlesbrough.
“Also it is important the players who come here are happy - like Ken and Nate were over the last three months.
“And it is important Jose and me are happy because the players are playing for me and are good for me and for him too.
“For this all of us have to be happy.”
