Chelsea midfielder Raul Meireles dismisses speculation that he left Anfield for money.

New Chelsea signing Raul Meireles has dismissed speculation that he left Liverpool for financial gain.

The former Porto midfielder submitted a transfer request in the final hours of the transfer window, allowing him to make a last-minute move to Stamford Bridge after spending just one season with the Reds.

"People think I am a Judas and that it was because of the money," he told RTPN. "It was not because of that, I will explain it later, things are still fresh.

"These are things that happen in football. I can only say good things about Liverpool, it was a fantastic year. I will never stop loving the club and I have great friends there. It all happened very fast."

The move reunites the 28-year-old with former boss Andre Villas-Boas.
