#9 Mateja Kezman – Chelsea
When Mateja Kezman arrived in London from PSV Eindhoven, he was considered to be one of the most prolific scorers in Europe. However, his £5.3 million move to Stamford Bridge was a bad decision, to say the least, even though he was a part of the Chelsea side that won the domestic double under Jose Mourinho in 2004/05.
Kezman’s career after joining the Blues can be perfectly summed up in terms of numbers – the player scored more than twice as many goals (105) in his four years before joining Chelsea than he did in seven seasons after coming to London(41), leaving the club after only one year.
Kezman moved on after the horror show at Chelsea but failed to make a lasting impact due to injuries that eventually led to his decline and went on to play for clubs like Fenerbahce and Paris-Saint Germain before calling it a day in South China in 2012. One of the hottest strikers in Europe during his peak bowed down as a mere footnote in the history of the game.
