Striker can choose his own future, says Mourinho
Chelsea manager Jose Mourinho has insisted that Didier Drogba can choose his own future at the end of the season.
The Ivorian is on a rolling 12-month contract at Stamford Bridge due to his age and the club’s policy, and Mourinho has told the club’s official website that the striker can choose his own future.
Mourinho was discussing the importance of experience in the dressing room and Drogba is easily one of the most experienced players at the club.
However, ‘The Special One’ has insisted that Drogba himself can decide what he wants to do over the Summer.
Drogba’s Future
‘I think it belongs to him: what he feels, what he thinks,’ said the Portuguese.
‘When they reach this age, I think it’s more about them analysing themselves. It’s not just about the body. It’s about the body, the brain, the heart, family, projects for the future.
‘I think, this is a club thing. This is a Mr Abramovich thing. Mr Abramovich wants him to do what he wants in the club, but it’s something Mr Abramovich has to tell him. He has to decide. But, obviously, he belongs to the history of this club. These guys are special players.’
