According to reports Liverpool inspiring captain Steven Gerrard who has insisted many times that he will never leave liverpool, Chelsea are planning to launch £30million transfer bid for Steven Gerrard.

Chelsea coach Carlo Ancelotti has told close friends that Gerrard is his number one transfer target come the summer January transfer window after following Gerrard’s regular comments about wanting to win Premier League Championship before he retires.

Steven Gerrard who played 500th game for Liverpool last week against BlackBurn was on the verge of leaving Liverpool in 2005 for Chelsea. When Steven Gerrard dramatically changed his mind at eleventh hour.

Regarding that deal Gerrard wrote in his book: “Madness broke out. I was sitting dazed at home, watching the TV, and when I saw fans burning an old No 17 shirt by the Shankly Gates, it did my head in. Show some respect. Don’t you know how this is tearing me apart?. Dad begged me not to go, but I replied, ‘look at the TV, fans are burning my shirt, the club aren’t stopping them, Liverpool don’t want me any more’.”

He continued: “I stared at the TV through flowing tears. I was suffocated by stress. My head was banging, and I was eating paracetamol like Smarties. It was the lowest point of my career. I broke down. Panic breakdown. Complete mess. Could I hand in that Liverpool armband? Could I look the father I adore in the eye again? Could I let the Kop down? No. I couldn’t jump over the edge of the cliff. I could see the great possibilities of Chelsea, but my heart wouldn’t let me leave.”

“Finally, my mind was made up. At 11pm that night, on July 5, 2005, I called my agent to tell Rick Parry that I wanted to sign. My heart stopped racing, and I put the paracetamol away. The following morning, I awoke with a smile on my face for the first time in weeks.”
