Drogba seeks more dollar

Quelle surprise anyone? Not really. We should feel sorry for the Ivorian, after all he is only on a reported wage of £120,000 a week...yet, "Once you are well into your thirties you have to go to a club where you can be certain you'll be able to pay your bills" says the 34 year olds agent Thierno Seydi. Yeah, like he's living on the breadline. It seems to be the trend at the moment for footballers, not even attempting to hide their real ambition when forcing through a move to another club. "At Didier's age, he has nothing left to prove as a player. He will go where he is offered the most money."

Well at least their honest, I guess? I'm sure he will be given a new nickname (akin to Cashley Cole) Didier Dollarba, Dollarbill, something along those lines, but probably better, and he won't give two s**** about it. Why would he when he could potentially make a similar wage to the likes of Samuel Eto'o, around the £350,000 a week mark at Uber rich Russian club Anzhi Makhachkala.

Turning down a loan move to AC Milan (they just LOVE old players) pretty much confirmed his disinterest at playing at the highest level anymore. With the lure of Russia, Qatar or perhaps the United States proving too much to resist, we should say farewell (and good riddance?) to one of Chelsea's biggest Prima Donnas of recent years.
