Mo Salah told to leave amid contract tussle as Chelsea claim made

Didier Drogba has joked that he would like to see Mohamed Salah move to Chelsea in a "selfish" transfer

Drogba is an icon at Stamford Bridge and rated as one of the greatest forwards in Premier League history.

Despite the rivalry between the Blues and the Reds, the Ivory Coast international shared his admiration for Salah and suggested he will remain one of the best players on the planet for a long time yet.

"If I am selfish, I will tell Salah to leave Liverpool and return to Chelsea," he said. "My opinion is that Salah will remain the best, no matter if he continues at Liverpool or if he moves.

"Any other team would perform better [with him] because he understands what he is doing, is good at scoring and creating goals, and only needs the confidence of the coach."
