Didier Drogba return to Chelsea on a one year contract

Chelsea Football Club have announced the signing of former-striker Didier Drogba on a one-year deal.




The Ivorian international left Turkish side Galatasaray this Summer after his contract expired, and after holding talks with the Premier League club, he made the decision to rejoin them on a one-year deal.



During the signing of his contract, Drogba said: ‘It was an easy decision - I couldn't turn down the opportunity to work with Jose again.  Everyone knows the special relationship I have with this club and it has always felt like home to me.


‘My desire to win is still the same and I look forward to the opportunity to help this team. I am excited for this next chapter of my career.’


Jose Mourinho added a comment and said: ‘He’s coming because he’s one of the best strikers in Europe. I know his personality very well and I know if he comes back he’s not protected by history or what he’s done for this club previously. He is coming with the mentality to make more history.’
