Malouda: Chelsea, please don’t axe me

Florent Malouda has begged Chelsea not to dump him in the summer. The Blues are ready to cut their losses on the French winger after two disappointing seasons at Stamford Bridge, the Sun reported.

But Malouda, who moved to London from Lyon for £13.5million in July 2007, insists he wants to see out his contract. The French international said: “My intention is to stay. I play for a team that helps me get closer to my targets. Last year, we almost won the Champions League”.

“I am now aiming to go even further — until the end of my contract.I express myself little on the subject. Inevitably, journalists sometimes make out that I’ve said something I haven’t.”
