The Chinese Super League club have confirmed that Anelka will join them on a two-year deal in January that is understood to be worth £175,000 per week.
The dream is now to partner the Frenchman with the Drogba. With the financial muscle of businessman Zhou Jun behind them – he made his fortune from an internet company which held the China licence for the hugely popular World of Warcraft fantasy game – Shenhua have shown they can compete with anyone. And Zhou says there is more to come.
“”(Didier) Drogba, is a very excellent player. From the perspective of Chinese football, if these big-name players, these excellent players, are willing to come to China, we are willing to have warm negotiations and communications with them,” Zhou said. ”
“A lot of clubs are chasing Drogba. From our perspective… we also have to see what Drogba wants. So from our club’s perspective, we have this to say – If he is willing to come, we will definitely welcome him.”
Drogba, whose contract at Stamford Bridge runs out at the end of the season, has been offered a three-year deal worth more than £30million – £200,000 a week – by Dalian Aerbin.
Aerbin’s general manager Li Ming said he was waiting for a response on the offer, adding: “Money is not the problem.
