Jose Mourinho will come face-to-face with Chelsea for the first time in an emotional reunion this summer. The Blues have agreed to meet Inter Milan in a pre-season match in the United States this July. Mourinho, who left Stamford Bridge last season after three successful years, is yet to square up to his former club. AC Milan and Club America will also take part in the four-team World Football Challenge across America. 'We have been looking forward to re-engaging with Jose and this is an opportunity to do that,' said Chelsea chief executive Peter Kenyon. 'I know when he was coach, how much he enjoyed pre-season in the US and Jos?s always competitive, so it will be great to come together again in a slightly different way than from in the past.' Chelsea play Inter in California on July 21 and Milan in Maryland on July 24. Their final game against Mexican giants Club America comes two days later in Texas.
