Chelsea midfielder Michael Ballack has rejected reports he is in contract talks with the club and is uncertain where he will be playing next season.
The injured German international midfielder's deal with the Blues runs out this summer and he has yet to be offered fresh terms. Despite being eager to extend his four-year stay, he has accepted Chelsea's decision to leave negotiations on hold.
Speaking to the News of the World, Ballack said: "I am not having talks with Chelsea right now. We spoke in February and March but they put everything on ice with every player and that is still the situation.
"It's not easy but I am just a player so I accept this. I respect the club and I want to carry on at this club.
"But at the moment nobody has talked to me."
Ballack made 32 Premier League appearances last season, proving an important cog as the club won the first league and cup double in its history.
