Jose Mourinho has taken a dig at Manchester City after their £25million signing of Wilfried Bony.
The Premier League champions wrapped up a four-and-half year deal worth £100,000-a-week for the Ivorian striker on Wednesday,y but Mourinho has questioned whether City have remained within Financial Fair Play rules.
He said: 'Good striker. If they have the money and no problems with FFP, well done. Rules are different for City.'
City's signing of Bony means they now boast four - Bony, Yaya Toure, Sergio Aguero and Edin Dzeko - of the Barclays Premier League’s top five goalscorers of 2014.
Manuel Pellegrini's side are two points behind Chelsea in the title race, but Mourinho believes his side are not favorites.
He said: 'We are not favorites for the title, we are candidates. I would say the same if we were two points behind.' per Daily Mail
Chelsea travel to Swansea on Saturday but Mourinho is still expecting a difficult test from Gary Monk's side despite the loss of Bony.
He said: 'Swansea have a very good team and very good teams don't depend on one player. Losing Bony doesn't make them less difficult.'
