Drogba: I Will Join Barça Or Milan

[M|ch]

Didier Drogba has been quoted in the Gazzetta dello Sport as saying that he will quit Chelsea for either Barcelona or AC Milan in the summer.

The Ivorian striker has been linked with an exit from Stamford Bridge on a consistent basis ever since the departure of Jose Mourinho.

Drogba revealed in an interview with France Football last October that he would definitely be leaving the club, and that nothing could change his mind.

The two clubs most heavily associated with signing the 29-year-old have been Barcelona and Milan. The player has now admitted that he will be ending up at one of these two destinations at the end of the season.

"The next summer I will go away from London,” Drogba was quoted while on duty at the African Cup of Nations in Ghana.

“For my future there is Barcelona or Milan.”

One key factor in deciding which of these two giants Drogba opts for could be linked to former mentor Mourinho.

The Portuguese tactician has been linked with taking over at both clubs, as Frank Rijkaard and Carlo Ancelotti are both virtually certain to move on to pastures new in the summer.

Drogba has a very close bond with Mourinho, and has never hidden how grateful he is for making him the world-class player he is today.
