The Cote d’Ivoire striker will leave when his contract expires at the end of June and is now odds-on to follow his former team-mate Nicolas Anelka to China.
He leaves the club on a high after a starring role in Saturday’s Champions League final when he scored an emphatic late headed equaliser before coolly slotting home the decisive penalty in the shootout.
It capped a glittering period at Stamford Bridge where he also won three Premier League titles, four FA Cups and two League Cups.
“I wanted to put an end to all the speculation and confirm that I am leaving Chelsea,” Drogba said on the club website.
“It has been a very difficult decision for me to make and I am very proud of what we have achieved but the time is right for a new challenge for me.”
