Villas Boas wary of PSG power

Florent Malouda and Didier Drogba are just two of the Chelsea men being linked with a move to Paris.

“We are speaking about new ambitions, new clubs with great financial power being involved in great transfer market activity.

“That can attract players, but look at what is being built here and our recent history in the Premier League, of winning titles.

“We’ve had European trophies and great FA Cup wins, but the most successful period of the club happened from 2000 onwards. I would say this plays a part in any player’s ambition.

“There’s big investment now with Qatari owners, but I am not sure whether players would respond to their call as they would from the most prestigious clubs out there.”
