Drogba to travel for Impact match against FC Dallas

The star striker will link up with his teammates in Texas after sitting out Montreal's first two games of 2016.

Boasting the best record in MLS through two games, the Montreal Impact will add star striker Didier Drogba to the fold when they travel to face FC Dallas on Saturday.

Impact coach Mauro Biello confirmed Tuesday that Drogba will link up with his teammates Thursday in Texas after sitting out the first two matches of 2016 because the games were played on artificial turf.

Drogba, who turned 38 last week, has been training with the USL's Sacramento Republic.
