New Lyon striker Milan Baros claims he was on the verge of joining Chelsea from Aston Villa before leaving the Barclays Premiership for France on Monday.

The 25-year-old told Czech daily Sport the switch fell through due to Shaun Wright-Phillips' reluctance to leave the champions for Villa Park.

Baros said: "I agreed [to the move] with Chelsea. It was practically a finished thing. Everything broke down over the fact Wright-Phillips did not want to go to Aston Villa. And coach [Martin] ONeill told me that without any replacement, he would not let me go as he would not have any strikers left."
