Chelsea boss distances himself from attackers exit rumours

Chelsea Football Club’s manager Maurizio Sarri has reportedly rubbished claims if him being involved in Nigerian winger Victor Moses’ movements in the January transfer window.

According to various reports, Moses has been heavily linked with moves to Fulham, Cardiff City as well as his old club Crystal Palace but Sarri is said to be ignoring comments on any developments.

Amidst rumours that Fulham are stepping up their campaign to convince Moses and Danny Drinkwater to join Gary Cahill in a switch across West London, Sarri says only those who are responsible can talk about it.

Moses has reportedly been shown around Fulham’s facilities at Craven Cottage, ahead of a proposed move, and Chelsea are willing to allow the star leave on a permanent or temporary basis as he is not in Sarri’s current plans.

However, Sarri is not willing to throw comprehensive light on the former Super Eagles star, who has dropped down The Blues’ hierarchy.

At the start of the season, Moses was behind only Willian, Eden Hazard and Pedro in the pecking order of wingers, but is now their fifth-rated, as Callum Hudson-Odoi has also overtaken him.

Moses has not seen action as he did in two seasons under Antonio Conte at Stamford Bridge, tallying approximately 176 minutes in the six matches he was mostly used as a substitute.

Given his lack of game time, Moses is tipped to depart in the ongoing window, such that Palace, Fulham, Cardiff City and Wolverhampton Wanderers are all said to be keen on having him this month.

However, Sarri prefers not to talk about Moses’ likely transfer, saying: ”I don’t, know because I am not in charge of the market. You have to call the club and ask the man in charge. I don’t know.”
