Samuel Eto’o
A
former Manchester United coach Rene Meulensteen says he would not be
surprised to see Samuel Eto’o leave Anzhi Makhachkala for Chelsea.
The Russian club has seen a number of
star players leave following owner Suleyman Kerimov’s decision to cut
costs, with Willian the latest player expected to depart as Tottenham
closes in on the Brazilian’s signature.
Eto’o has previously revealed he would
like the chance to work with Mourinho again, having played under the
Portuguese at Inter, with the Chelsea coach reciprocating the affection.
Meulensteen, who spent just 16 days as
coach of the Russian club before being sacked, says Eto’o could leave
the club and would be a big success in the Premier League should he move
to Stamford Bridge.
When asked if he could see such a deal going through he told Sky Sports News, “I can see it happening.
“I mean I know Samuel is a bit older,
coming to the end years of his career, and obviously the English Premier
League throws completely different demands on you, different than he’s
been used to the last couple of years.”
