Eden Hazard is close to signing a new contract with Chelsea that would pay him £200,000 per week.
Hazard's current deal does not expire until 2017, but Chelsea is offering a new five-year deal to stave off interest from other clubs.
Paris Saint-Germain and Real Madrid have expressed interest in Hazard in the past.
José Mourinho said: “He means a lot because he’s a fantastic player. We are feeling day by day his motivation to work hard and improve. We have big hopes that he will go from the top player he is at this moment and will reach higher levels to become one of the best.
“He is a player who we want to keep, in spite of the fact he has a long-term contract as young as he is. It’s true Chelsea are trying to have an agreement over a new contract, and that he wants to stay and commit for a few more years. It’s a question of time. One more month, one less month, and he’ll have a new contract.”
Hazard would become the highest paid player at Chelsea.
