Italian giants, Ac milan is set to spend about 20m Euro( 15m pounds) on Chelsea’s Iviorien striker, Didier Drogba. The move is aimed at getting the team back on track after losing out of the Champions League last week.
After a goalless game against Arsenal at the Emirate in the first leg of the round of 16-knockout stage, it lost 0-2 at san Siro to the Gunners, Sparking a move to rebuild the team. And one of this is getting Drogba to play at San Siro with the player already disenchanted with the Blues after the sudden exit of Jose Mourinho early in the season.
Drogba is top of AC Milan’s shopping list, with the Rossoneri willing to spend 20m Euro(15m pounds) to get their man. This is not the first time that the Ivoirien- Whose future at Stamford Bridge is less than clear-has been linked with Milan.
But the Rossoneri’s early exit from the Champions League has hammered home to top officials that they are crying out for a decent centre forward. Drogba, it seems, is top of their wish list.
According to the sun, milan technical director Ariedo Braida met Drogba’s representatives in Italy on Wednesday, just a day after the European exit to Arsenal.
Milan is crazy about Didier. There was a meeting in Milan this week and the Italians said Didier is their priority for this summer,”a source close to Drogba reportedly confirmed.
The 30-year-old is said to be unhappy with his wages at Stamford Bridge, which are less than half those earned by club skipper John Terry.
