Didier Drogba of Chelsea celebrates the first goal during the UEFA Champions League group E match between Bayer 04 Leverkusen and FC Chelsea at BayArena on November 23, 2011 in Leverkusen, Germany. |
Didier Drogba has refused Chelsea's offer of a one-year contract extension and will go wherever he is offered the most money next year, his agent said yesterday.
The 33-year-old Ivory Coast striker has scored nearly 150 goals for Chelsea since moving from Olympique Marseille in 2004 for 24 million pounds (US$37.4 million.)
"Didier has had the offer of a one-year extension from Chelsea. That does not suit us," Thierno Seydi said. "We know what we want, where we want to go and what offers we have. AC Milan came in for Didier on loan with an option to buy but I said 'No' straight away. Their offer did not interest us. At Didier's age, he has nothing left to prove as a player. He will go where he is offered the most money."
