Chelsea not planning Kalou or Drogba sale

Chelsea manager Andre Villas-Boas has denied that the Blues are planning to sell Ivorian duo Salomon Kalou and Didier Drogba. The two are currently away for the African Cup of Nations tournament.

"They will return to this club from the African Nations and hopefully we will hold on to them until the end of the season," Villas-Boas said of Kalou and Drogba.


"That's our intention, and I think their willingness as well."


Arsenal have been linked with a 4m GBP move for Salomon Kalou, a long term target of Arsene Wenger; whilst Didier Drogba has been linked with a move to China to link up with former team mate Nicolas Anelka.
