BA-CK IN ACTION ... Chelsea striker Demba Ba against Singha All-stars
DEMBA BA insists he will NOT try to quit Chelsea if they sign Wayne Rooney.
The Blues striker says he would welcome the Manchester United star and the increased competition for places at Stamford Bridge.
Ba reckons that would bring the best out of him and fellow front men Fernando Torres and Romelu Lukaku.
He said: “I think we need competition and we welcome the best players in this club.
“More competition is going to make me better anyway.
“Of course all players want to play, not only centre forwards.
“But we will all work in the same direction, for the club, to try and win the games. So yes, I will stay.”
Ba scored a cracking goal in Chelsea’s 8-1 demolition of an Indonesian XI here last night in front of 65,000 noisy fans.
And he predicts it will be exciting working with new boss Jose Mourinho.
Ba added: “It’s always good to score but at this stage it’s more about the work and running a lot on the pitch to get you condition back.
“I feel good. It’s been a good week’s work with the new manager. We will see in the next few weeks. It will be exciting.”
