Former Chelsea star Adrian Mutu has urged the Blues New boy Romelu Lukaku to up his game and have a great first season at Stamford Bridge. Lukaku is back at Chelsea where he was as a young lad after having a career with several clubs in the English Premier League and one in Italy.

MUTU REVEALS HE REJECTED ARSENAL BEFORE SIGNING FOR CHELSEA

August 20th, 2021

There have been a lot of transfer stories in the past where footballers would have to reject or decline the offer made by one club in favor of accepting another one from a different club and a lot of players have, in the past, confirmed that they have had to turn down a contract offer from one club just so they could accept the next available offer. While some players give reasons like they thought the accepted offer was the right one at that moment, others would, even though they rarely mention it, choose to go for the deal that would see them earn more money than the other one.

It does happen though bit it is only on rare occasions that players would decide to turn down a big-money move to a club in favor of a transfer to another club where they would earn a relatively lower salary because they “only want to play football”. One of those players who have now revealed how they had a change in their career path by snubbing one club for another is former Chelsea player Adrian Mutu. Mutu may not be remembered as one of Chelsea’s best players ever because of the sort of career he had at Stamford Bridge but he clearly wished he had a more successful career with the Blues.

However, his case was further proof that excelling in the English Premier League is not always an easy task even though you’re coming to the league as a top player from another country.

MUTU BLAMES HIMSELF FOR FAILED CHELSEA CAREER

May 25th, 2021

Before a club signs a player, there’s always a 50-50 chance even before the transfer is done. It’s usually either the player hits it big at the new club or flops. Although sometimes it usually takes time before the player gels with the team and blends into the playing style of his new team, other times, it just usually either does not work, or the player would not be able to perform up to expectations or targets.

This list is the one that contains the transfers that they would wish they never initiated in the first place.

February 26th, 2021
