Ba: I want to leave

Demba Ba wants to leave Chelsea this
summer, according to quotes attributed to
the striker in the Sunday People.
Ba has been a bit-part player for the Blues
under Jose Mourinho, with the Stamford
Bridge boss preferring either Fernando
Torres or Samuel Eto'o in a lone striking
role, with the Portuguese coach bemoaning
his lack of optins.
The Senegal international, who has made
more substitute appearances than Premier
League starts after his £7million move
from Newcastle in January 2013, now
appears keen to depart for pastures new.
Ba helped Chelsea reach the UEFA
Champions League semi-finals in midweek
when he stepped off the bench to score a
late goal against Paris St-Germain, and
admits he would welcome a move to the
big-spending Ligue 1 club.
He is quoted as saying by the Sunday
People: "I'm looking to leave Chelsea. I
want to play the full 90 minutes, get the
maximum number of games and enjoy
myself.
"I've not done that very much this season,
and I doubt things will change for me here.
"I could well imagine myself at PSG. That is
even though they have taken on a new
dimension, and seem to be looking for
international stars in the £50million
bracket rather than steady performers
costing £10m.
"But if PSG are looking for someone to play
alongside Zlatan (Ibrahimovic), then I'm
their man. They will win the Champions
League sooner or later, and not just the
one time.
"Jose Mourinho has never explained his
decisions to me. I am honestly surprised
that I have been this patient. Earlier in my
career I would have cracked up or blown a
fuse.
"My friends Eden Hazard and Samuel Eto'o
have been important. They told me not to
give up.
"But Chelsea are at the top of the
pyramid. If I leave them I mustn't make a
mistake."
