Chelsea striker Nicolas Anelka is set to sign a new contract with the double winners, according to skysports.com.
The French international's current deal expires in 12 months' time, but the Blues had put talks about a new deal on hold until the end of the season. With the Premier League and FA Cup in the bag, the club has returned to the negotiating table to extend Anelka's stay.
The 31-year old's agent Doug Pingisi has confirmed that discussions have begun and his client looks likely to remain in London
"We are still in talks [about a new deal] and hopefully we will have news soon," Pingisi told Sky Sports.
"He is happy at Chelsea and of course he wants to stay at Chelsea."
Anelka joined Chelsea from Bolton Wanderers in January 2008. He fired in 11 goals to help Carlo Ancelotti's side to the league last season.
