As a part of an agreement with the Asian Football Confederation, Djeparov was offered to spend a month in trial with Premier League giants Chelsea F.C.. However, Bunyodkor's matches in the Uzbek League championship and the Asian Champions League meant that he was unable to attend. Anyway, this season was described as his best season of his career.
