Chelsea will make no signings
in the January transfer window, says manager Jose Mourinho. The team has enough
capable and balanced players to even out in the coming competitions. The Blues have six matches before January 1,
with the first starting today against Hull City. Mourinho plans to rest his
senior players for this Yuletide season, saying he is doubtful any one player
should appear in all the six matches. The manager has granted his
European-based players a two-day 'holiday' to rest and 'have a nice dinner with
their families'. The former Real Madrid manager's side meets Hull City in the
Premier league today. Petr Cech will replace injured skipper goalkeeper Thibaut
Courtois in the Hull City face-off. Cesc Fabregas is ruled out for suspension
and midfielder Nemanja Matic joins the squad after ban.
Wilfried Bony has completed his big-money move from Swansea to Premier League champions Manchester City.The Ivorian striker, who is on international duty at the Africa Cup of Nations, joins Manuel Pellegrini's side for an nitial fee in the region of £25million with another £3m inadd-ons over four years. Bony, 26, has agreed a four-and-a-half year deal. He willwear the No 14 shirt worn previously by Javi Garcia. 'It’s a great feeling for me, it’s a big honour to be here and it’s a great challenge,' said Bony.
