Chelsea will not sack Jose Mourinho during the international break

Jose Mourinho's side have suffered seven defeats in the Premier League this season

JOSE MOURINHO'S job is safe for another nine days at least, according to reports.

The Portuguese boss has come under fire in recent weeks following Chelsea's poor start to the season.
The Blues sit 16th in the Premier League table having won just three games from their opening 12 matches.
Roman Abramovich had reportedly begun to lose patience in Mourinho, but according to Goal.com, the Russian businessman is reluctant to sack him due to a lack of available replacements.

The report suggests Abramovich does not want to show Mourinho the exit door at this stage of the season.
The Blues have reportedly made a move for Atletico Madrid boss Diego Simeone while Carlo Ancelotti and Pep Guardiola have also been linked with a move to west London.

Roman Abramovich will not sack Jose Mourinho during the international break, according to reports

Mourinho only signed a new four-year deal at Chelsea in the summer having led them to Premier League glory last season.
And Abramovich will be well aware that if he sacks the former Real Madrid manager, he will be forced to pay Mourinho a staggering £30million.
Chelsea's next match after the break sees them take on Norwich City on November 21 at home.
