    Chelsea Release Crespo

    [​IMG]

    <div class='quotetop'>QUOTE </div><div class='quotemain'>The Argentine international joined The Blues from Inter Milan in 2003 for a fee in the region of £17 million.

    He was deeply involved in Chelsea's attack during his first season at Stamford Bridge, making over 30 appearances for the club, but eventually became surplus to requirements once José Mourinho took over as coach in 2004.

    Crespo would spend one season on loan at AC Milan before being recalled in 2005/06 but ended up being loaned out to Inter Milan for two seasons.

    A statement on the club's official website reads: "After his contract expired this week, Hernan Crespo is no longer a Chelsea player.

    "We thank Hernan for his efforts in a Chelsea shirt, and wish him well in the future."</div>

    Weird they won't try to collect a fee for him after splashing out so much.
