Demba Ba rules out Chelsea move

Newcastle United striker Demba Ba has no plans to swap Tyneside for a move to London, despite reports of Chelsea having an interest in the striker. The Newcastle frontman reportedly has a 7m GBP release clause in his contract.

"It is rumours, like you get in football," said Ba when asked of a move to the Blues.


"I am happy with Newcastle and I enjoy being here and playing for the Toon Army. I enjoy being in this team. We have a good team spirit and I love the North East, where I have my country-mate Papiss Cisse."
