Drogba to enter talks with Chelsea for new contract
March 18th, 2011 - 6:28 pm ICT by ANILondon, Mar 18(ANI): Chelsea striker Didier Drogba has revealed that he will hold talks with the club’s administrators about his future at the end of the season.
Drogba’s contract expires next year, and it is unclear whether Chelsea intends to extend it.
“It will be very interesting to see what happens in May. Then we can sit and speak about it and have a coffee,” the Independent quoted Drogba, as saying.
The 33-year-old admitted initially struggling to accept him no longer being a top dog, but insisted that he quickly came to accept manager Carlo Ancelotti’s policy of rotating his forwards.
“It wasn’t easy the first week, but that’s normal. Today, I know that we’re doing this for the best of the team. The team is more competitive. We have a lot of strikers, but I can’t complain, I’m not the only one,” Drogba said.
“Everybody talks a lot about my future, but I’m enjoying it and I’m happy to be here,” he added. (ANI)
