Drogba reveals Chelsea contract talks next week

Didier Drogba says he'll discuss a new deal with Chelsea next week.

He confirmed he would take up chief executive Ron Gourlay's invitation to sit down at the end of the season in an 11th-hour attempt to reach an agreement.

"We'll sit down with him and we're going to talk," said Drogba, who refused to criticise the club for failing to make him an offer he could not refuse.

"I don't think about this. Tomorrow's game (Champions League final) is so important.

"My future, my contract, are not important.

"I want to give everything to the team and the fans.

"From there, we'll see what happens."
