Villas-Boas prepared to risk losing Drogba, Kalou on free

Chelsea boss Andre Villas-Boas says he doesn’t plan to sell Didier Drogba, Nicolas Anelka and Salomon Kalou in January.

The Blues could lose the trio on free next summer, but Andre Villas-Boas believes selling them in January wouldn’t be the right thing to do.

“I don’t think so, it happens all the time,” Villas-Boas was quoted as saying in The Mirror.

“The most important thing is for the club to try to defend its interests. We know these players are of higher importance.

“That’s why the offers are on the table, apart from with Anelka. End of story. We will try to get them to reach an agreement.”

Nicolas Anelka has already revealed his desire to leave Stamford Bridge when his contract expires at the end of the season, whereas Didier Drogba and Salomon Kalou have yet to sign contract extensions.
