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.

Former Chelsea player Adrian Mutu has been looking back on his career lately and has been making some revelations about his best and worst moments during his time at Stamford Bridge. Mutu was one of those players that were signed by Chelsea that would eventually not go on to fulfill their potentials to the fullest, and he has now admitted that it was a difficult time for him as well. Upon completing his move to join the Blues, a lot of expectations were placed on Mutu to become a shining star at the club because of how very talented he was and how he was able to showcase some of his skills on the pitch.

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.

Romanian striker Adrian Mutu has revealed that he could have won the Ballon d’Or during his career. Adrian Mutu made this known in a chat withItalian news portal Correire dello Sport. According to him, he could have made different decisions but he would rather not dwell on the past.
When Adrian Mutu signed for Chelsea in 2003, he was tipped for great things and was also expected to hit the ground running at Stanford Bridge. He did his best in his first few games as he also scored a brace against London rivals Tottenham Hotspur to take his tally to four goals in just his first three outings.
Just a few fans would remember Adrian Mutu as a former Premier League player, or as one who donned the famous Blue shirt of Chelsea Football Club. The former striker was prolific on his day but could not live up to expectations and ended up having an unfulfilling career.
On Saturday, Teemu Pukki achieved a reward, the reward of scoring goals in each of the first three Premier League that he played. He has become the 10th player to do so following the path of Adrain Mutu and Diego Costa. However, strike of Pukki couldn’t bring a win to his team at Carrow Road. Pukki is now 29-year-old and he played impressive in the game. He got strangled in the 30th minute of clash of Norwich City with the Blues, the high effort of player wriggle through Kepa Arrizabalaga, the goalkeeper.
Pukki had a great time in England and he has a wonderful beginning of the game in the English top flight, they defeated Liverpool on the opening day and then having a hat-trick opposite Newcastle United in the first home outing of Norwich.
However, the goal of the Blues came in a losing reason. This is because, Norwich went down to 3-2 score in the early kick-off. On the other hand, Pavel Pogrebnyak was the only other player who scored five goals in first three appearances.
Adrian Mutu and Diego Costa both players managed four in three games at the beginning of their career with Chelsea. The feat was also achieved by Brian Deane from Sheffield United, Michu from Swansea, Mick Quinn from Coventry City and Manolo Gabbiadini from Southampton. Dalian Atkinson from Aston Villa and Michael Ricketts from Bolton Wanderers also enjoyed this time. Both of them played wonderfully and was able to score three times in three games they appeared in.
Former Chelsea player Adrian Mutu said that Chelsea has made a bad decision in allowing Sarri to leave the club. He said that they have lost a great manager and that he will be hard to replace. He said that it is not a surprise why Juventus are interested in the manager as he is one of the best managers in the world.
