Chelsea midfielder Florent Malouda hopes to sign a new deal at the club and see out the remainder of his career at Stamford Bridge.

The 30-year-old’s contract runs until 2013 but Malouda admits talks to extend his stay are under way.

“I have asked to prolong my stay several times,” he told France Football.

“I have had two meetings with the chairman. But the club’s policy is to sign players beyond the age of 30 one year after another. That is my situation.”

The France international admits it would be ideal for him if he could agree a new three-year deal, when he could well hang up his playing boots after the World Cup.

“I would like to have a contract until 2014, with the World Cup an objective in my mind,” he added.

“I would like it to be clear for everyone. I am aiming to end my career at Chelsea.”
