Chelsea begin talks with striker, deal could be announced tomorrow

Guus Hiddink is set to take charge now after the Premier League champions got rid of Jose Mourinho earlier this week and the London club want Drogba to be a part of his staff.

According to GFN France, Drogba is in talks with Chelsea and an agreement could be reached by Monday.

Drogba is massive fan favourite at Stamford Bridge and has won the Premier League with the Blues. The Londoners are hopeful that the Ivorian can help Hiddink with his experience as a player.

Furthermore, the appointment of Drogba could be a masterstroke in calming the atmosphere around the club.
