Kenyon: Drogba is staying

03 December 2008 - 10:32

Chelsea chairman Peter Kenyon has ruled out Didier Drogba leaving the club. The Ivory Coast international striker has been linked with a January exit to AC Milan or elsewhere in Italy.

  • Mauricio Pochettino confirms fresh injury blow for Chelsea star
  • Arsenal want to make four marquee signings this summer

  • Drogba is wanted by Chelsea and the club have no intention of selling, despite Nicolas Anelka now being the first choice striker at the Bridge.



    Kenyon said: ''Didier has a contract with us. Players will only leave Chelsea when we let them. Didier has a big season ahead of him and 18 months left on his contract.



    ''We know the contribution that Didier Drogba can make for Chelsea, and we want to get him back to that form because it's important for us in the second half of the season.



    ''That's been my message to Didier. The coach is supportive of him. The team is supportive of him. He's at Chelsea - why would he want to be anywhere else?''
