Jose Mourinho Press Conference: Key Takeaways from Pre-Season Tour Media Session

The 2015-16 Premier League season isn't even underway, but Chelsea manager Jose Mourinho is already providing great insight into the goings-on at Stamford Bridge and more.  

Speaking to the media in Montreal on Tuesday, the Blues boss sent a strong hint that left-back misfit Filipe Luis is likely to be sold this summer and the club will be seeking a replacement, per the club's official Twitter account:

The reigning Premier League champions are currently touring North America and face the New York Red Bulls in their first International Champions Cup fixture this Wednesday.

Commenting on the prospect of players arriving this summer, Mourinho jested Chelsea would mimic the drama seen at Manchester United and Arsenal in recent years, waiting until deadline day to conclude business:

Asked whether he would like to coach in Major League Soccer one day, the Special One confirmed it is a destination that interests him, but the time hasn't come just yet:

"

Jose says he would consider managing in the MLS one day, but not now. He would 'like to contribute to a fantastic country'. #CFCTour

Mourinho also took the time to show his appreciation for how the sport is growing in North America before his team's clash against New York Red Bulls:

With the new campaign quickly bearing down upon last season's runaway victors, Mourinho is under intense pressure to ensure Chelsea maintain their supreme standards.

Following Wednesday's test in New Jersey, the west Londoners face two promising ties against Paris Saint-Germain and Barcelona before heading back to Stamford Bridge for a pre-season closer against Fiorentina.
