Crespo scored 10 league goals for Chelsea last season

Crespo, who played under Ancelotti when he was the Parma coach, had a mixed campaign at Chelsea last season after arriving from Inter Milan.

"Everyone knows that I would be really happy to play under Ancelotti again," Crespo told La Gazzetta dello Sport.

"We will see what happens, but over the last two years changing clubs during pre-season has been my destiny."

"In 2002 I began pre-season with Lazio and was sold to Inter, and the following year I began pre-season with Inter and was sold to Chelsea."

Crespo has a good goal return of 10 in 13 Premiership starts since his �16.8m capture from Inter Milan.

But the imminent arrival of PSV Eindhoven striker Mateja Kezman at Stamford Bridge is expected to hasten Crespo's exit.
