Ivory Coast striker Didier Drogba wants to quit Chelsea three years after joining the Londoners.

"I want to leave Chelsea. Something is broken with the club," Drogba told the France Football magazine due to be published on Friday.

Drogba, who has scored 43 goals in the Premier League, was one of the players most affected by former manager Jose Mourinho's departure last month.

The Portuguese coach, who led Chelsea to back-to-back league titles in 2005 and 2006, has been replaced by Israel's Avram Grant.
