Liverpool vs Chelsea: Top 5 players who played for both Liverpool and Chelsea

#3 Nicolas Anelka

Anelka played for six different Premier League clubs including Chelsea and Liverpool

Nicolas Anelka changed clubs so many times in his career, and it is not surprising to find that he featured for two of the biggest English clubs at some point in his career.

The Frenchman's spell with the Red was a short one, in which he did manage a lot of first team football, with 20 appearances in total. But it is his spell with Chelsea that is much more memorable.

Not only did he win the Premier League title with the Blues in 2009-10 season, but was also the Golden Boot winner with them in the previous season.

Although he did play for both the clubs, his journey from Merseyside to West London was a long and interesting one.
