HERNAN CRESPO fears he could be called back by Chelsea next
season despite his desire to stay in Italy. The Argentine striker
is in the middle of a two-year loan deal with Inter Milan, scoring
12 goals for the Italian champions this season. But Chelsea have
the option of recalling their £16.8million signing in the summer
and could offer Crespo, 31, a lucrative new
contract.
His agent, Fernando Hidalgo, said: Chelsea seem to have the
intention to take him back to London. If this is the case there
would be nothing we could do due to the fact Chelsea own the
player.
Crespo is under contract to Chelsea until 2008 after agreeing a
£90,000-a-week deal when he signed from Inter in 2003.
