Chelsea close to agreeing Kai Havertz, Ben Chilwell and Thiago Silva deals
Blues also close to signing ex-Nice defender Malang Sarr on free transfer; Thiago Silva set for medical on Thursdaywww.skysports.com
Strewth.
Now this is funny.
Carlton Cole claims Abramovich wouldn't sell players to Spurs, and that's why his move to us didn't go through after the medical.
That's strange because the story I've always heard, from way back, is that Cole, being an early Spice Boy loads-a-money & shit4brains incarnation turned up for the medical drunk. And we pulled the plug, literally, when he fell off the jogging machine.
Either way, bullet dodged, because Carlton Cole wasted the raw talent he was born with to become a Spammer journeyman mediocrity....
