The great head coach of Chelsea, Jose Mourinho, spoke about the arrangements for the transfer of Andriy Shevchenko to the London club in 2006.. According to the words of the Portuguese leader, the Ukrainian is not his priority option for strengthening the attack.

Mourin noted that the current ruler of Chelsea, Roman Abramovich, is actively involved in football, but does not have enough information about football nutrition himself. According to the coach, Shevchenko’s candidacy was chosen among the priorities through the footballer’s connections with Kerivnitsev and his agents.

“Abramovich is a very football-loving person, but she didn’t know anything about the situation in the football plan.

Shevchenko appeared on the list through contacts with barefoot, connections with agents. I don’t want to sign anything without telling anyone about it, so that’s my responsibility.

Do you want to know who I want to sign Eto'o,"

Shevchenko moved to Chelsea from Milan in 2006. The transfer amount was close to 30 million pounds, which at that time was a record investment for the London club.

The Ukrainian spent two seasons at Chelsea, playing 77 matches in all tournaments and scoring 22 goals.
