Chelsea striker Nicolas
Anelka is furious that he won't be offered a new contract this
season.
The Daily Star says the Blues cancelled two meetings
with last season’s Premier
League top scorer – the second one around 15 minutes
before it was due to take place.
Since then, Anelka’s representatives have been told the club
have a policy of not offering players over 30 a new deal until they
are in the final year of their contracts.
Anelka, who joined from Bolton for £15m in January of last year, has the
remainder of this season and next left on his deal. The apparent
U-turn has upset Anelka, 30 last March, who picked up the Golden
Boot as the League’s top-scorer with 19 goals last season.
And his treatment has left him particularly disappointed because
he shunned the opportunity of having operations on his hip and
groin this summer in order to impress new manager
Carlo Ancelotti.
