Mourinho makes Drogba admission

ChelseaJose Mourinho fears Serie A leaders Internazionale may not be the only club trying to sign Didier Drogba if he leaves Chelsea.

Reports this week suggested Inter director Marco Branca met the Ivory Coast striker's representatives to put the wheels in motion for a possible switch to Italy.

Former Chelsea manager Mourinho says a he remains an admirer of Drogba but will not be declaring any interest in the Stamford Bridge star while he is under contract with the Premier League title-chasers.

"It is easy for me to talk about him, because he is like a son to me," said the Portuguese coach.

"I remember every moment we spent together: from when I wanted him at Chelsea and he first arrived at Stamford Bridge, to the cup final at Wembley when he hugged me before his team-mates, seeking me out like crazy in the locker room.

"But it is also difficult for me to talk about him, because he is a Chelsea player, he has a contract with them and can choose between many different teams when he wants to leave."
