AP - Mutu ordered to pay Chelsea compensation
Updated: July 31, 2009
LAUSANNE, Switzerland (AP) - Sport's highest court of appeal has ordered Adrian Mutu to pay his former club Chelsea €17.2 million (US$24.2 million) compensation after it fired him for using cocaine.
The Court of Arbitration for Sport ruling Friday was a stunning defeat for the Romania striker who appealed a FIFA decision last August to award Chelsea the record sum in damages for a football dispute.
Mutu was fired in October 2004 after testing positive for cocaine and was banned from football worldwide for seven months.
Chelsea had paid £15 million (now $24.7 million; €17.6 million) to sign Mutu from Parma in 2003.
But it got nothing when Mutu joined Juventus as a free agent after serving his ban.
The 30-year-old Mutu now plays for Fiorentina.
