Given there had been a written club-to-club agreement and Camara had undergone a medical and agreed a six-year contract, Chelsea believe Monaco’s U-turn was deeply unprofessional.

Chelsea head coach Liam Rosenior on the goalkeeper situation: “Obviously I made a decision to play Filip against Villa and his performance was outstanding. His performance against PSG for 75 minutes was outstanding but then he made a mistake. Rob Sanchez is one of the best goalkeepers in the league but I have to make a decision for every game.”

Chelsea and Liverpool have done more groundwork on Murillo than any other club over the past 12 months, with both sides even weighing up bids last summer. (via @GraemeBailey)
