Scolari breaks silence on Bridge exit

FORMER Chelsea boss Luiz Felipe Scolari has broken his silence on his period at Stamford Bridge and suggested a cultural breakdown due to his nationality was responsible for his failure in west London.

The Brazilian, who was sacked in February after seven months in charge at Chelsea, is currently the highest-paid coach in the world, earning a reported €13 million per year at Uzbeki club Bunyodkor.

He confirmed that he is still being paid a severance fee by Chelsea as well.
