Defender Walter Samuel's proppsed move to Chelsea looked as step closer this morning after the Argentinian international, almost begged for a move outside of Italy. This will be no doubt very welcome new for Abramovich. Who has been tracking the defender for quite sometime now. Samuel made these coments yesterday: "If I must be sold in July, then I only ask that I am sold to a foreign club.

"It's not that I do not want to stay in Italy, but I would find it impossible playing against Roma. I just couldn't play in front of Roma's fans for a club like Juventus or Inter Milan."
