Chelsea striker Didier Drogba informs his representatives to begin negotiations with Barcelona over a potential switch to the Nou Camp, according to his agent.

Didier Drogba's representative Francois Gallardo has revealed that he will discuss a potential move to Barcelona with the Spanish giants following the Copa del Rey final.

The Chelsea striker comes to the end of his current contract at Stamford Bridge this summer, but reports have insisted that the Ivorian is keen to stay with the Blues.

Despite the 34-year-old's apparent intentions, it has been reported that a switch to the Nou Camp could be on the cards.

"I have a document signed by Drogba allowing me to start negotiations with Barca," Gallardo told Spanish TV.

"After the Copa del Rey final I will meet with [Andoni] Zubizarreta and confirm the interest of Didier to play for this club. Money won't be a problem because the player is more concerned about sporting issues."

Drogba has previously been linked with a switch to Chinese Super League outfit Shanghai Shenhua.
