Chelsea boss Jose Mourinho has heaped pressure on dejected AC Milan by insisting they will not have star striker Hernan Crespo for a second loan agreement next season.

AC Milan's Hernan Crespo arrives at Malpensa Airport in Milan May 26, 2005. AC Milan returned to Italy after losing the Champions League final soccer match against Liverpool at the Ataturk Olympic stadium in Istanbul on Wednesday.

Mourinho is demanding ￡10 million for the Argentina international, or Milan will have to look elsewhere to boost their attack next season.

The Blues boss said of Crespo, who struck twice in this week's Champions League final, "If Milan wants a good forward without paying to acquire him, they will have to look elsewhere.

"We are not going to grant another loan for Crespo. If the Rossoneri want him, they must pay for his real value."
