Porto defender Alvaro Pereira has given a very strong indication that Andre Villas-Boas is on his way to Chelsea after bidding farewell to the coach via his official Facebook page.
The Portuguese tactician appears poised to join Chelsea after just a one-year stint with Porto and left-back Pereira has spoken of his coach’s departure as a certainty.
“Andre Villas-Boas is going to Chelsea. Abramovich has taken our coach from the Estadio do Dragao,” he said on his Facebook page.
“We have to thank the coach for all the work and the trophies conquered with us this season. We have lost our coach but we will remain strong. WE ARE PORTO!”
Chelsea will reportedly spend €15 million £13.2m to buy Villas-Boas out of his contract, with Portuguese sources suggesting the 33-year-old has been offered a €5m-a-year deal £4.4m-a-year, which is five times higher than his current contract at Porto.
