Didier Drogba has reportedly informed his Chelsea teammates that he will leave the club in the summer.
The Ivory Coast international will be a free agent when his current contract expires in July.
Despite numerous members of the Chelsea squad going public with their desire to see the 34-year-old remain at Stamford Bridge, he has decided that the time is right for a fresh challenge, according to France Football.
Drogba has been linked with lucrative moves to China or the United States of America, while Barcelona have also been credited with an interest in recent days.
