Valencia midfielder Joaquin has revealed that Chelsea made a massive 42 million EUR offer for his services when he was still at Real Betis. Joaquin has continually been linked with a move to Stamford Bridge.
Joaquin told Spanish daily AS: "I rejected an enormous deal with Chelsea when I was still with Betis.
"After a meeting with Mourinho and Abramovich the offer was 42million euros.
"It was so incredible, but I studied the situation and decided to reject their offer. I want to be happy and because of this I decided to move to Valencia.
"I may not have received the money but my life is better than in London, I am convinced.
"I do not have any regrets about this decision. In football, money is not always the key."
