Didier Drogba plays down talk of Turkish move

Football News Staff - 11 Feb 2011
Chelsea forward Didier Drogba has shrugged off speculation linking him with a move to Turkish giants Galatasaray.

The reigning Premier League champions splashed out a British-record £50m to land Fernando Torres from Liverpool on transfer deadline, and that has led to speculation that Drogba could be on his way out of Stamford Bridge in the summer.

Reports in Turkey have suggested that Galatasaray are keen to land the Ivory Coast international on a lucrative three-year deal, but Drogba, whose current contract expires next year, insists he is only focused on helping Chelsea retain their title.

The 32-year-old striker said: “I could not comment at the moment on speculation. I have a contract with Chelsea until June 2012.

“I just want to finish this season strongly. I am not thinking about my future contract at the moment, I just want to put Chelsea on a good run.”
