Inter Milan boss Mourinho cools talk of dining with Chelsea's Drogba

Inter Milan boss Jose Mourinho has played down reports that they've held a round of talks with Chelsea striker Didier Drogba.

It was alleged that Inter Milan's sporting director Marco Branca had met Drogba in a Fulham restaurant on Monday night.

Reports also suggested that Inter coach and former Chelsea boss Jose Mourinho's agent, Jorge Mendes, and the player's representative were also present at the dinner meeting.

"I don't know where Branca was, I was at dinner at Cernobbio," he said. "I know absolutely nothing about this story.

"I know on the other hand that Drogba is part of the history of Chelsea and, from afar, it seems to me that he is and will be a Chelsea player."
