Didier Drogba has expressed his delight at signing a new deal with Chelsea. The Ivory Coast striker has penned a new three-year deal with the Blues putting an end to constant speculation about his future. "I have decided to extend my contract with Chelsea for two extra years and I am very happy and proud to continue to wear the blue of Chelsea until then," he told his club's official website. "I love the club, I feel good here and I want to continue to win titles with them. "I stay because I am ambitious to pick up lots more trophies, regain the Premier League title, win cups. It is for this that I have extended my time at Chelsea. "But my number one objective is to win the Champions League. I am convinced that this year we can go to the end and finally lift this trophy.
