The Premier League is investigating the transfers of Willian and Samuel Eto’o from Anzhi to Chelsea
The English Premier League (EPL) is conducting an investigation into the circumstances surrounding the transfer of forward Samuel Eto’o and midfielder Willian from Anzhi Makhachkala to London’s Chelsea. The Daily Mail reports this.
It is clarified that when signing contracts with players in 2013, the British made some secret payments to Russian organizations not related to football. The current owners of Chelsea have noticed this. It is noted that Willian and Eto’o were unlikely to be aware of the intricacies of the design of their transitions.
On May 26, 2022, it became known that Russian billionaire Roman Abramovich, who owned Chelsea since the summer of 2003, sold the team to the Todd Boeley consortium. It was noted that the transaction amount was $5.33 billion.
Chelsea paid 35.5 million euros for Willian. Eto’o joined the Blues as a free agent.
