Chelsea had at first refused Assistant Coach Steve Clarke’s tendering of a resignation to join up with Gianfranco Zola at Upton Park, but now it’s looking like both clubs have reached compensation as West Ham has sent 1 Million Pound over to Stamford Bridge for the highly rated Number 2.

“Clarkey has been an unbelievable servant for Chelsea for many years as a player and as a coach,” said Blue’s and England Midfielder Frank Lampard.

“He has been an important member of the back-room staff for what we’ve done over the last few years. But if he feels he wants to go and do something different - I know he has intentions to be a manager in his own right - you can only wish him all the best.”image via EuroSport
