Slav kills off striker loan rumour
Newspaper reports arose a few weeks ago of a possible loan move to Upton Park but ClaretandHugh was told at that time there had been no contact although our insider explained: ” You can never say never but we don’t see Chelsea letting it happen.”
And the manager has confirmed that declaring: “It’s all stories. He was on a list of many, many clubs because of his achievements with Olympique Marseille. He’s a really good young striker.
“He was the subject of basically all the clubs that could afford him. He opted for Chelsea and that’s it. Ask him [about being frustrated on the bench]! It’s not frustrating for me!”
