It may surprise you to know that Mark Hughes was a Chelsea supporter as a boy. He signed for the Blues in 1995 having previously had great success at Man United. During his three seasons at the club he put in some memorable performances, particularly in the cups. Perhaps his best goal for Chelsea was in the Cup Winner's Cup semi final against Vicenza - a remarkable game in itself, only improved by this classic route one goal!
I'm not sure why Chelsea played in their away strip considering this was the home leg!
Corinthians made Mark Hughes figures in both the 1995-97 home kit and the 97-98 away kit as shown in the video. A biography of Hughes's time at the club can be found here.
