Golden Boot winner Didier Drogba has claimed he is 'attracted' to the prospect of playing on the continent and has warned he is not certain to remain at Chelsea in the long term.
After a slow start to his career at Stamford Bridge following a £24million move from Marseille, the Ivorian was arguably the Blues best player last term as he blasted 21 goals in the Barclays Premier League.
But, amid talk that club owner Roman Abramovich's wallet could remain resolutely closed this summer after several years of mega-spending, Drogba has expressed concern that the Londoners' ambition may no longer match his own.
He said in The Sun: 'If I think the club lacks ambition, then it is sure I will not stay too long. I'm 29 and I don't have much time to lose.'
Drogba added: 'I'm at the last big turning point of my career.
'It's time for one final big choice - should I stay or should I go? I am tempted to discover another world and to see what footballing life is like outside England.
'It would be a big disappointment if I never manage to play for teams that I dream of playing for. That would be terribly frustrating.
'Spain and Italy attract me a lot and, although I am a long way from saying farewell to Chelsea, you never know what can happen.'
