Chelsea: Drogba not for sale

20 July 2010 17:30
Chelsea have warned Europe's top clubs Ivory Coast striker Didier Drogba is not for sale. The double winners moved swiftly to silence speculation over the striker's future after he had been linked with a move to Manchester City by his agent. Agent Thierno Seydi suggested in a radio interview Drogba could leave Stamford Bridge before the transfer deadline and said there had already been dialogue with City. But while City insisted there was "no foundation" to Seydi's remarks, Chelsea went further by declaring Drogba untouchable. A spokesman for Chelsea told Press Association Sport: "It is all irrelevant, Didier Drogba is not for sale."
