Torres digging in his heels at Chelsea

Fernando Torres insists he's not planning to leave Chelsea this summer.

Jose Mourinho has spoken repeatedly about his desire to bring in a top class forward, with Atletico Madrid's Diego Costa primed to join in a £32m deal.

Yet despite his boss writing him off, Torres insists he wants to stay and fight for his place at the Bridge.

"It is clear that he intends to hire another striker, but I will continue to work to change his opinion," Torres told So Foot.

"Not much to say, it's impossible to do another reading: he is not completely satisfied with our performances."
