Andre Villas-Boas reveals he wanted Parker at Chelsea
Goal : Tottenham manager Andre Villas-Boas has revealed that he wanted to sign Scott Parker when he was Chelsea boss.
The 32-year-old England international joined Chelsea in 2004 in a £10 million (€12.1m) transfer, but spent just 18 months at Stamford Bridge, where he failed to establish himself in the first team.
But Villas-Boas had hoped to tempt him back to west London, while now admitting his delight at coaching the 32-year-old, who is returning to fitness after four months out with an Achilles problem, at Tottenham.
