The announcement of the sale was made by the Russian league Machachkala "Anzhi" legionnaire from Cameroon, Samuel Eto'o, expressed his desire to play in a club coached by Jose Mourinho again. The world media soon started talking about the transfer of the 32-year-old forward to London's "Chelsea".
After the owner of Anzhi announced that the team budget will be significantly reduced, it is said that many of the best-paid players will have to give up. S. Eto'o is the highest-paid football player in the world - his annual salary is about 20 million euros.
Together with J. Mourinho, S. Eto'o won the Serie A championship, the Italian Cup (Coppa Italia), the Italian Super Cup (Supercoppa Italiana), and the UEFA Champions League at Inter Milan.
"There is only one Jose Mourinho. I have played with various coaches, but there is no other figure in football like Jose," the player is quoted by the Daily Mail.
Not only powerful football clubs, but several other Anzhi club stars are aiming at the Cameroonian, and S. Eto'o would like to play in J. Mourinho's team again.
"He is one of the best coaches in the world and we have had many successful moments at Inter. I would like to have the opportunity to play in his team again - it is never boring when Jose is around. Of course, Chelsea is a very good team, so we will consider all the offers with the agent and then decide," the striker said.
It is reported that another destination for the forward could be Italy, where the "Napoli" club led by the new coach Rafa Benitez is interested in him. However, S. Eto'o's agent tends to deny these rumors: "It would be a dream for him to wear the legendary Napoli jersey, but they have not approached us."
