Anelka will stay at Chelsea

Chelsea risk losing Nicolas Anelka on a free transfer at the end of the season after the French striker admitted he had no plans to quit Stamford Bridge for a move elsewhere.

“I never said I wanted to leave Chelsea,” Anelka said. “Even if there’s an offer from someone else, I don’t care because I am seeing out my contract at Chelsea, one more year.

“I said in the beginning when I signed that I wanted to stay until I finished my contract. I still have one more year and I’m happy.”
