Free Agent
Marco Amelia: Gets Chelsea deal
The free agent goalkeeper has agreed to join Chelsea for the remainder of the season, Football Italia reports.
ANALYSIS
How Amelia fell under the radar is quite bizarre. Late in the 2013-14 season with AC Milan he got into a fight with teammate Daniele Bonera. The club chose to part with Amelia, who was Italy's third-string goalkeeper when it won the World Cup in 2006. Surprisingly, nobody picked him right away as he showed he was good enough to start for most teams. He eventually joined Serie B side Perugia, but played just one game.
