Chelsea boss Jose Mourinho insists prospective signing Michael Ballack will not come to Stamford Bridge as Frank Lampard's replacement.
Of the Bayern Munich star, Mourinho insisted: "At the moment this is something without interest for us. He doesn't know what to do - whether to stay in Germany at Bayern, come to Chelsea or maybe go to Real Madrid or Barcelona.
"Every big club wants a player like him. But it looks to me that he is in doubt. He's a player that I like and big players can play together.
"The problem is bad players playing together. Then there's a big confusion on the pitch!"
