Drogba is a living legend at Chelsea for his exploits in the eight years he spent at the club, having been signed by current manager Jose Mourinho from Marseille in the 2004.

And the two could be reunited once again at Stamford Bridge in the summer, with the Ivorian striker’s current contract with Galatasaray due to expire at the end of the season.

Drogba has a heavy affinity with the Blues from his time with the club, having won the league title three times and scoring the vital penalty that secured Chelsea’s first ever Champions League trophy.

His wife and children still live in Surrey, not far from Chelsea’s Cobham training ground and he is believed to intend moving back to England upon the conclusion of his playing career.

Chelsea are believed to want to help the 35-year-old ease into that transition by bringing him back to the club in a coaching capacity in order to help the Blues’ next generation of strikers improve their games and create a great striking dynasty in West London.

Chelsea will come face-to-face with Drogba this Tuesday as they take on Galatasaray in the last 16 of the Champions League.
