LONDON: Brazilian left-back Roberto Carlos revealed he was within touching distance of signing for Premier League giants Chelsea in 2007. "I had two proposals, Fenerbahce and Chelsea. Chelsea didn't work out so I signed for Fenerbahce. But, with Chelsea, it got very close. It was literally agreed and I just had to go there and sign the contract," Carlos told Goal.com after the Challenge Heineken Legends.(IANS)
