Eto'o accepted massive pay-cut to make Chelsea move

Samuel Eto'o has taken a massive pay-cut to move to Chelsea.

The Cameroon legend has foregone an incredible £10 million to sign for the Blues from Anzhi.

The Russian outfit - who also allowed Willian to join Chelsea - had made him the highest paid player on the planet, but he has seen his pay slashed from £17m to £7m a year since leaving for London.
