Drogba still in doubt


Didier Drogba has refused to commit himself to Chelsea, saying he will make a decision on his future when he returns from holiday.

The Ivory Coast international recently said he is at the last big turning point in his career, and appears no closer to pledging his future to the club.

"You want to know if I will still return to Chelsea? I will reply to that when I am ready. For now I am having a deserved vacation," said Drogba.

"I love the English league and may not be in a hurry to leave England. But it's difficult to really predict what I want to do in the next week."

Earlier this month, the 29-year-old said he would like to play in Spain or Italy before the end of his career.

Drogba was Chelsea's key player last season, playing nearly 60 games and scoring 33 times, but his latest comments are a clear indication he is not entirely happy at Stamford Bridge.

"I have been working hard and would love to win the Champions League with Chelsea. But, for now, let's just wait and see," he said.
