Chelsea striker wants MLS switch

The 31-year-old’s contract with the Blues is set to expire in 2012, but the striker is keen on a move to the US before retiring from the game.

“Nicolas told me he is interested in playing in the United States,” the agent, Claude Anelka, said in the Daily Star.

“We could see him crossing the Atlantic, and I’m serious when I say this. He asked himself what he will do once his current contract runs out.

“The US is quite something, and a dream destination. He says he will give it a try, even though he would earn less money than in somewhere like Qatar.”
