Sheva Deal

Sheva to call on Chelsea today

Andriy Shevchenko's imminent transfer to Chelsea will see him at London today holding talks regarding the deal. Milan have confirmed that he has been given permission to talk to the English Champions.



“We can confirm that he has been given permission to travel to London,” a statement on the Chelsea's website stated. If things go smoothly, the move would be completed by the end of the week. It is reported that Sheva could even have his medical on wednesday afternoon.

Milan's policy of not keeping a player who wants out is something to be lauded, as there are few, if any, clubs which follow it, leave alone clubs of the calibre of Milan. But iam afraid some players may be using it to their advantage. If they think Milan's policy of not playing hardball is ground for them to dictate terms to the club, then it is time the club reminded them who pays the wages. They need to be reminded that not playing harball is only an option, as is the option of sticking to the contract and asking a player to shut up.
