Chelsea midfielder Claude Makelele says his future is up
in the air after admitting he could be tempted to follow David
Beckham to MLS.
Makelele played a key part in Chelsea's Premiership successes in
2005 and 2006, but the arrival of Michael Essien and emergence of
John Obi Mikel saw his grip on a regular starting berth weaken last
term.
The midfield destroyer claims he could remain at Stamford Bridge
for another season, but has other options open to him.
"I have not decided where I will play next season," Makelele told
Telefoot.
"I could remain with Chelsea, as I am under contract for next
season.
"The United States is an option. It wouldn't prevent me from
playing for France, ask the coach."
Reports continue to link Makelele with a move to Paris Saint
Germain, but he claims there has been no approach from the capital
club.
He added: "I have not been in contact with Paris Saint
Germain."
Makelele looked likely to retire from international football after
last summer's World Cup, but he had a rethink and is now keen to
play for Les Bleus at Euro 2008.
"If Raymond Domenech calls me up, of course I would be pleased to
play Euro 2008 next summer," concluded Makelele.
