I have no idea if this is remotely reliable or not, and frankly, we'll probably never know. Regardless, Law is making the claim that the player believes a move is coming, so we'll take note.
Regardless of whether or not Mata training with Chelsea today, and regardless of whether or not what Law is reporting has an basis in fact, it's really beginning to look as if we ought to be bracing ourselves for the departure of Juan Mata. That makes this panda sad.
