Heskey to Chelsea?

The Mail are today reporting that Carlo Ancelotti is ready to tie up a £4million deal within days.

Chelsea havent been playing there best of late and are now without the likes of Saloman Kalou and Didier Drogba who are representing the Ivory Coast in the African Nations.

The question we have to all ask though is what matters more to Emile? Money or his World Cup dream.

I personally believe he won’t be going anywhere. I rate him as many people on the forums are well aware of, and i would be dissapointed to see him leave.

I also don’t think Martin O’Neill would allow him to leave unless it was somewhere he was guarenteed first team football. O’Neill is a big fan of Heskey, having worked with him at Leicester.

We have to also remember, Heskey hasnt actually said he wants to leave Villa Park. There was rumours a few months ago about him being unhappy about the lack of first team football – but he then come out and denied this and has since been in the Villa first team ahead of John Carew. Hes only been missing the past few games due to injury.

For me this is no more than a theory. A two plus two scenario. Heskey was reportedly unhappy and Chelsea need a striker.

Id expect Emile Heskey to still be playing for Aston Villa when the transfer door slams shut.
