Mourinho lauds Chelsea star as "one of the best in the world"

Real Madrid boss Jose Mourinho has lauded Chelsea centreback Ricardo Carvalho as one of the best players in the world amid reports the La Liga giants are hoping to lure him from the Premier League this summer.
The Portuguese international has openly admitted his desire to be reunited with his former manager at the Bernabeu and when pressed on his rumoured interest in the veteran defender, Mourinho was fulsome in his praise for Carvalho.
The self-proclaimed ‘Special One’ is quoted by the Daily Mail, saying: “I always said that Carvalho is one of the best in the world.
“We'll see what happens.”
The former Chelsea manager also seemed unconcerned by the 32-year-old’s advancing years, claiming the former FC Porto star is at his peak.
“He is in the period of his greatest maturity,” he concluded.
