Sheva loan to Sampdoria on cards?
Ukraine international Andriy Shevchenko is being linked with a season-long loan switch from Chelsea to Sampdoria.
It had been thought that a return to AC Milan was Shevchenko's most likely next move but Samp's general manager, Beppe Marotta, has expressed his interest in the 31-year-old.
"We have a way to resolve our problems up front with a figure able to stir up the crowd as well as put the ball in the back of the net," he told Secolo XIX newspaper.
"Sheva would be happy to join us, but there are problems around his wages.
"Many top-class players like Sampdoria and a deal is entirely plausible, so never say never."
Shevchenko has scored 22 goals in 76 appearances for the Blues since his big-money switch to Stamford Bridge over two years ago.
