Talks over Chelsea midfielder Michael Ballack's future will soon take place with the London club, but he has not ruled out moving to another Premier League outfit. The Germany captain's contract expires at the end of next month and he has yet to find out whether the Blues are prepared to offer him an extension, but he told Germany's WDR radio that his future will soon be resolved.
"After the season, we are definitely going to hold talks with the (Chelsea) decision makers and then we will see where things go from there," he said.
"My primary aim is to stay in the Premier League."
The 33-year-old has been linked with a move back to the Bundesliga with Schalke emerging as a surprise candidate to sign him.
