Drogba to decide Chelsea future within '10 days' @ Wednesday July 16

Didier Drogba's agent claims he will sign a new Chelsea contract if the striker does not find another club in the next 10 days.

Drogba has been linked with Barcelona, AC Milan and a move that would re-unite him with former Chelsea boss Jose Mourinho at Inter Milan.

But his agent Thierno Seydi says he may stay and sign a long-term Chelsea deal.

New Chelsea boss Luiz Felipe Scolari has already stated he wants the 30-year-old to remain at the club.

Seydi said: "Didier has given himself 10 days. If nothing happens he'll stay and extend his contract by two years."

He added: "He doesn't see himself starting training in a few days with Chelsea and then leaving to a new club.

"The reality of November is not that of today. At the time Didier was affected by departure of Jose Mourinho who he was very close to. Today, there is nothing to say that he won't stay at Chelsea."

Drogba has seemed destined for the Stamford Bridge exit door for months but recently looked to be reconsidering his options.
