Cocky Robben not worried about Ballack’s arrival at Chelsea

ARJEN ROBBEN does not feel threatened by the imminent arrival of Michael Ballack at Stamford Bridge.

Chelsea chief executive Peter Kenyon hopes to finalise negotiations for Bayern Munich’s Germany midfielder before the World Cup begins on June 9.

Ballack will be one of three new summer signings with Robben reportedly among the trio expected to be offloaded to accommodate their arrival. But the Dutch winger is backing himself to remain a key member of the squad, whoever boss Jose Mourinho brings in when the transfer window reopens.
