Zouma is now a key member of the Chelsea side under Frank Lampard this season and he credits Mourinho for his development.

"He is the one who opened the door of England to me. I was only 19 when I arrived there. That's young. It's also him who gave me belief by playing me in big matches with a lot of intensity," he told France Football.

"It is also he who showed me what football in England was about. The coach is a man who detests losing. He taught me to hate defeat.

"Thanks to him, I got to enjoy myself at Chelsea. He has given me a lot of things and taught me an enormous amount. I thank him."
