Chelsea striker Fernando Torres says he expects to stay at Stamford Bridge for at least three more years.

The Spanish striker has scored only 14 PL goals in his 78 appearances since joining Chelsea from Liverpool for 50 million Euros in 2011. Speaking ahead of Thursday’s Europa League semi-final first leg against Basel, he said, "I have many things still to give to this club. 


"I have three more years’ contract so I expect to stay at least three years."
Fernando Torres scored 81 goals in 142 games for Liverpool, while his ball kissed the net 84 times in 214 league games for his first club Atletico Madrid. But he has found it comparatively difficult in London. Torres has still scored four times in the last three Europa League matches to help Chelsea to the last four. "We won the Champions League last season”, he added. "Hopefully we can win the Europa League. It is our priority as well as finishing in the top four of Premier League. "We want to go back to the Champions League next season and keep winning as trophies as we can"."We are sure that we are the great team and we want to show everyone. I would like to be involved". 

Torres has scored 12 out of his 19 goals this season since the arrival of Rafael Benitez – the man who took him from Atletico Madrid to Liverpool.
"It’s never easy to change the manager at the mid of the season. It happened to us last season and we won the Champions League. It also happened with us this season with Roberto Di Matteo and when Rafa came"."We know each other since Liverpool and I know he is doing really well for Chelsea this season. He is working very hard but result is the only thing he doesn’t have in his hand"
