Drogba's agent: Chelsea striker not bound for Inter Milan

Didier Drogba's agent insists, despite reports to the contrary, that the player never met anyone from Inter Milan last month. Drogba was reported to have attended a dinner with Inter's sporting director Marco Branca and Jorge Mendes - agent of Nerazzuri coach Jose Mourinho.

"Officially, I tell you firmly, Didier never met anyone from Inter," he told Le 10 Sport.

"It is disrespectful to say that."

Seydi insists that Drogba is fully committed to the Chelsea cause.

"His priority is to give his best for Chelsea, and he is absolutely not unhappy.

"To talk about a transfer is just not topical, despite everything you hear and read - there is nothing."

He also insisted that Drogba was not envious of team-mate Nicolas Anelka's goal scoring record this season.

"He is very happy for Nico, he is not jealous," he said.

"He appreciates him a lot and would like to play with him in attack.

"Didier just needs time to get back to his best, he has never had such an injury in his career before."
