Drogba ready to discuss £130,000-a-week Chelsea deal

Didier Drogba is ready to discuss a mega £25 million four-year contract with Chelsea.

New Blues boss Phil Scolari has told chief executive Peter Kenyon to make the Ivory Coast star an offer he can't refuse when he meets Drogba this week.

Billionaire owner Roman Abramovich has given the green light for the mega deal worth in the region of £130,000-a-week and now it's up to Drogba.

The 30 year old, who has two years to run on his current deal, said: "Chelsea want to speak and I am open to talk.

"Things have not changed but I am a Blues player. Money is not the main factor and if Chelsea show they want me it is possible to accept a proposition."
