Vagner Love (which sounds like a miss-spelled opera title I will grant you) is insisting he has quit CSKA Moscow to return to his homeland (Brazil in this case) but is life ever simple? Not when Chelsea are around.

"I am not returning," said the Brazilian international

Well bless, it’s a bit cold and he can’t be expected to do miracles I mean they only paid err………. $6 million last summer.

But he has reasons: "There are no terms which can force me to return. I am sick of the cold and don't want my son to suffer from the Russian winter."

Well no-one was aware that his son had actually signed, so with this new development, coupled with the fact that no one told him Russian winters were slightly chilly, a move to that tropical climate that is Chelsea is just around the corner.
