CHELSEA are trying to seize three homes from shamed striker Adrian Mutu.
The Romanian, who left in 2004 after being caught taking cocaine, was ordered by world football chiefs to pay the club £14MILLION compensation for breaching his contract.
He has yet to pay. So Chelsea are taking legal steps to grab a £1.7million four-bed property, a £1.1million three-bed house and a £600,000 two-bed flat he bought in Miami after leaving England.
The club said: “We are exercising our legal remedies to recover the amounts owed to us.” Mutu, 33, was bought for £15.8million in 2003 and now plays for Italian side Cesena.
A Florida judge has refused to block the move to take his assets but Mutu said US law allowed him another appeal. He added: “It’s a case which won’t be resolved soon.”
His agent Ioan Becali claimed Chelsea were chasing Mutu only because he was a favourite of owner Roman Abramovich’s young son. He said: “Mr Abramovich felt betrayed. Chelsea just need Mutu’s apology.”
