Its because he broke his contract with Lens TheCrownless Send a noteboard - 03/09/2009 05:31:33 PM
To be released so Chelsea could pick him up.
Its one of the only cases I've heard of where this has happened, and the first in a long time.
The punnishment seems severe but they told an impressionable youth to break a legally binding contract.
Come to the dark side, We have candy!

I'm Israel, he's Palestine, its more fun when you pick sides.
