Udinese striker Stipe Perica is grateful to Chelsea pair Nemanja Matic and Branislav Ivanovic for their support.

Perica remains friends with the Serb duo from his three years with the club.

“I got friendly with Nemanja Matic and his brother Uros, we are still in touch, as is Branislav Ivanovic.

“What those guys did for me, that I will never forget. Nemanja still takes care of me, like my agent."
