Anelka training for Chelsea
Chelsea striker Nicolas Anelka is ready to pledge his future to Chelsea.The French forward joined Chelsea in January 2008 and said that he doesn’t want to move clubs anymore.
Anelka has moved clubs 8 times in his career playing for Arsenal, Liverpool, Manchester City and Bolton in England and has played in France, Spain and Turkey.
He signed for Chelsea in January 2008 from Bolton Wanderers for 15m. Bolton had signed the French international for 8m from Fenerbahçe.
Anelka is now 30 years old and after becoming Premier League Golden boot winner last year is enjoying life in London and doesn’t want to move again.
He also has said that he doesn’t mind the rotation policy that Italian manager Carlo Ancelotti will enforce.
“Before I came to Chelsea, I have always stated I wanted to play in a big club,” he told L’Equipe.
“Today I don’t want to move anymore. I am very happy here, to play and score for the club.
“I love Chelsea, I love the players I play with, I love playing in the Champions League and I want to stay here as long as possible. Now we will see what will happen.”
“It’s important because it’s a long season and we need everybody in the squad.”
“I was not surprised to be on the bench against Sunderland. The coach said; ‘I will give some rest to some players’, and I was part of that.
“I enjoyed seeing Chelsea win the game – it was good. The most important thing is to win with Chelsea.
“Of course everyone wants to play every game, but the manager said some games he will change the players and get some people to rest and we have to accept it.
