Drogba to ink new Chelsea contract

Drogba to ink new Chelsea contract

24 July 2011 - 07:05

Chelsea star Didier Drogba will put pen to paper on a new contract at Stamford Bridge until 2013. The player has only one year remaining on his current deal, but looks set to sign the extension.

  • Chelsea handed big injury boost for Bayern clash
  • Fernandes unhappy with Man Utd role under Amorim

  • It's understood that Andre Villas-Boas made tying his best players down to new long term deals his priority, instead of jumping into the transfer market and finding new players.



    Drogba will be offered a massive £145,000 per week contract to stay at the Bridge for another season.



    Drogba confirmed the new deal: "We've started talking and it's very interesting. Everybody knows what I feel about Chelsea and what I want.



    "I will definitely be here next season. I said a few years ago that I will be here until the end of my contract, and I am here.



    "Now I need to keep playing well here and giving my best, like I always try to do. This will be my eighth season at this club and it means a lot for any striker to stay that long at Chelsea.''
