Chelsea manager Jose Mourinho has reiterated that Arjen Robben remains in his plans.

Robben has been heavily linked with a move to Real Madrid, but Mourinho has reiterated the Dutch winger still has a role to play at Stamford Bridge.

Mourinho says he will continue to select Robben when the 23-year-old returns to action from his recent knee injury.

"Robben is still injured," Mourinho told Sky Sports News.

"He still has a little problem from the previous surgery, but when he is back and training with the group he is a Chelsea player.

"I'm always honest. I always pick the players that are in the best form.

"When Arjen arrives into that level he is a great player and a great choice for me."
