First, and throughout the summer, Cristiano Ronaldo has been saying things like “I’ll make an announcement on my future in the next few days” and “Next week I’ll tell you where I’ll be playing my football next season”. Now Didier Drogba is at it: “I will decide my future in ten days.” What’s wrong with this picture?
Well, they both have contracts with the clubs that own their registration. Whilst both are in place, Ronaldo and Drogba can make all the announcements they want, but unless Messrs. Glazer and Abramovich decide they want rid neither of them will be going anywhere.
I think it would behove them to realise that they are not the masters of their own destiny. Yes, they can say they want a move; yes, they can even go on strike; but until their contract expires or the owners decide they want shut then neither of them is going anywhere and it’s time they realised that.
