Chelsea striker Nicolas Anelka has revealed he is keen to end his career at Stamford Bridge.

The French forward joined the Blues in the January transfer window in a £15million move from Bolton.

Anelka, 29, has notched up nine clubs during his playing career - including spells at Chelsea's Premier League rivals Arsenal and Manchester City and a loan stint with Liverpool.

However, Anelka - who first moved to England when he joined Arsenal in 1997 - insists he is now settled at Stamford Bridge and that he is looking forward to a long and successful stay in West London.

"When I reflect on my career I have no regrets," Anelka told the Daily Mail.

"It doesn't matter I have not always been at the biggest clubs. My time at City and at Bolton was wonderful. I met a lot of good people at both clubs.

"But I have travelled enough and I would like to settle at Chelsea. I am back in the national team.

"I am back at a big club in London, playing in a team with the quality to win things. I would be very happy if my career ended the way it started."

Anelka is expected to start for Chelsea against Sunder land on Saturday as they keep up their pursuit of Arsenal and Manchester United in the title race. agas
