Since Roman Abramovich's tookover Chelsea in 2003 countless of stars have make a move to Stamford Bridge, including Gianfranco Zola, Didier Drogba, Fernando Torres and Frank Lampard, to give a few models.
Chelsea have been maybe the best hot shot in English football over the earlier decade, with a trade utilization of €1.465 billion. While the Blues are known to be maybe the most dynamic club in the trade market, things haven't commonly passed by script.
Here are 5 World class player that avoided chelsea move in the time pass
1. Alisson Becker
The 28-year old had an eminent mission with AS Roma in 2017-18, winning the Serie A Goalkeeper of the Year honor and the 2018 Copa America title with his public gathering.
With 32 clean sheets to his name that season, Alisson pulled in interest from a segment of Europe's top gatherings, including Chelsea.
Alisson in the end made the move to Anfield for a charge of €62.5 million, making him the world's most costly goalkeeper.
Alisson wasn't the world's most expensive goalkeeper for a truly prolonged stretch of time, as Chelsea cash in Kepa Arrizabalaga for a fantastic €80 million in a comparative trade window.
The Champions League and Premier League victory later uncovered in his saying why he chose to join the Reds:
"This (Liverpool) is a club with five European Cups in their prize authority. I really should have been significant for that arrangement of encounters."
2. Romelu Lukaku
Online media was spilling over with gossipy about Romelu Lukaku's approaching return to Stamford Bridge in the pre-summer of 2017.
The former Chelsea player had four wonderful successful seasons at Everton, enrolling 116 goals contributions (87 goals, 29 assist) in 166 appearances.
As predestined, Lukaku moved to Trafford, while Chelsea expected to make due with Alvaro Morata. The Inter Milan goal machine later explained in an advanced account his decision to excuse the Blues, saying:
"I was going to Chelsea. I was looking for accommodation, a space for my mum to stay close to the training ground, so I don't have to drive unreasonably far. Also, subsequently Man U came."
The Belgian worldwide explored a conversation with past United Manager Jose Mourinho, which he finally ended with the club.
3. Steven Gerrard
Liverpool legend Steven Gerrard once transparently contemplated a change to Chelsea in the 2004-05 season.
Gerrard has been conceivably the most ardent laborers of his youth club, going through 27 years of his footballing employment at Anfield, winning nine critical prizes, including the Champions League.
In any case, Liverpool weren't standard title-contenders during the 2000s and were weakening, with no veritable assumption or signs of progress. In the pre-summer of 2014, Chelsea made a €20 million bid for Gerrard, resolved to bunch him up with his English associate, Frank Lampard and Claude Makelele, in midfield.
The plan was everything aside from done, anyway Gerrard changed his point of view at the last possible moment and decided to remain at Anfield, owing to a couple of calls and discussions with his family in Liverpool and even end risks from some diehard fans.
4. Roberto Carlos
In the mid year of 2007, Chelsea almost stamped maybe the best name in the game's of football, Roberto Carlos.
Carlos had an eminent lifetime with Real Madrid, winning 13 prizes in 11 years. In 2007, the then-34-year-old Carlos was a free player.
The Brazilian actually revealed that he was 'close" to joining Chelsea by then, even as a proposition from Fenerbahceh was on the table.
In a 2017 gathering with Goal, the Brazilian said:
"With Chelsea, it drew near. It was from a genuine perspective agreed, and I simply expected to go there and consent to the arrangement. It was just a brief time before I completed desk work for Fenerbahce, and I had been to Paris to meet both Roman Abramovich and (past CEO) Peter Kenyon, anyway it didn't happen in light a few little factors."
Robrto Carlos would complete desk work for the 28-time Turkish saints, Fenerbahce, in that comparable trade window and consume three seasons at the club. Meanwhile, Chelsea stamped Dani Alves and Ashley Cole rather than Carlos as the chance of Roberto Carlos gracing the Premier League stays a standout amongst other 'what-vulnerabilities'.
