Chelesea FC news: Radja Nainggolan reveals the reason he turned down the Blues two years ago

Roma star Radja Nainggolan

Friday, March 30, 2018

Roma star Radja Nainggolan has revealed he turned down the chance to join Chelsea two years ago because “it's not all about money”.

The Belgium international has been extensively linked with a move to Stamford Bridge in the past couple of seasons and there were even rumours a deal for the 29-year-old had been struck last summer.

However, despite interest from Inter Milan too, the dynamic midfielder has insisted he is very happy at Roma and isn't considering a possible exit at the end of the season.

“Inter? There was interest from them because the coach rates me and vice versa, even if you wrote 1,000 stories about it... but let’s forget it,” Nainggolan told Il Tempo.

“I’ve always had a good relationship with Spalletti, he put me in the best condition to express myself, but ultimately there was no chance that I’d leave Roma.

“The truth is that in the past, I rejected important offers. Two years ago I could’ve gone to Chelsea and earn more, but for me it’s not all about money.”

Liverpool 1-1 Leicester City: Reds fail to go seven points clear of Manchester City with lacklustre draw

Image
http://bit.ly/2GbpR4P Liverpool missed a golden opportunity to go seven points clear at the top of the Premier League after only managing a 1-1 draw at home to Leicester. Following Manchester City’s defeat at Newcastle last night, the Reds could have put themselves in a commanding position at the summit and got off to the perfect start when Sadio Mane gave Liverpool the lead after just two minutes. But the Reds were lacklustre and let Leicester back in it when Harry Maguire took advantage of some slack defending to equalise just before the break. It means Liverpool are now five points clear of Pep Guardiola’s men but it was not the result Jurgen Klopp’s men were looking for. MORE TO FOLLOW Let's block ads! (Why?)
