Shevchenko to leave AC Milan...

[Martyn]

Schevchenko looks like he is leaving Milan for Chelsea. Most people thought he would but I cant understand his motives, why leave a club he is loved by for a club that is hated :p? If I was Milan I would hold Chelsea to ransom and demand well over ?50 million for him...

Good Riddance

A sad day :cry:

?50 million dollar for a 30 year old player ...........

[saxondale.]

experience at all the highest levels....

Apparently he wants to leave because of his wife, and he wants to learn English!

His wife is mega hot as well ;).

another player to warm Chelski's bench.....one wonders just how many players that money can be wasted on.

It would be ok if they actually made the most of the talent that they have but they dont.

A real shame....not.

I think he'd actually start. Drogba will leave. So Crespo and Shevchenko up front? Bloody hell.

The deal is done and everyone in the Premiership is doomed next season. Wow, Crespo and Sheva upfront. Have fun with that Prem keepers.

As a final note, LET'S GO POOL! :)

drogba's going nowhere and i can't see them playing all 3, i also doubt they'll play both going off last season

[Martyn]

The fee is rumoured to be between ?25 million and ?35 million. Sheva is one of the best strikers in the world, Milan should of demanded a lot more than that! They had the chance to hold Chelsea to ransom!

By the way Chelsea got Salmon Kalou as well (who is a decent player who can play up front or on the wing), so that add's even more competition...

I hate the way Chelsea can buy the league effectively, without Ambromovich Chelsea would still be a Newcastle. Everyone compares Chelsea's riches to Man Utd's riches, but at least Man Utd earned their money through success.

What a sweet deal for AC Milan, I'm a huge AC Milan fan and this season I came to realize that he is getting older and slower

Van Nistelrooy and Van Basten (coach) to AC Milan is the next news I'm expecting

I couldnt agree more. The FA should put a cap on how much a club can spend each season.

That won't happen until other major leagues decided to do the same as well

first they should put a cap on wages!

Why is Shevchenko worth so much compared to RVN? From what I've seen of Shevchenko, which is limited to the Champions League, he and Ruud are quite similar in their styles, although Shevchenko scores from outside the box more, I think?

So how come RVN is worth only ?8-12 million whereas Shevchenko is worth ?25-35? They are approximately the same age and have similar goalscoring records?
