The 29 year old Chelsea front man has been allegedly spotted going back and forth from London to Milan. The frequent travels are supposedly related to a woman with whom the striker is having an affair.
The Milan administration has been notified of this inviting opportunity as they seek to bolster their attacking power given the very negative start they have made to their Serie A campaign. All of their strikers are yet to score a domestic goal after six games as they dropped points yet again this weekend against Catania at the San Siro. Gilardino has been a shadow of his former self for Milan. Those who remember his exploits with Parma after Adriano’s departure from the Gialloblu will note the evident discrepancy in performance. Inzaghi, on the other hand, seems to give his best solely on the European stage, whilst Ronaldo is too often on the sidelines for the club to be counting on his goals alone. Drogba would seem the perfect answer for the Rossoneri who would also play on the fact that the Ivory Coast international was very close to ex-Chelsea manager Mourinho. The Chelsea player, who also holds a French passport making him an EU citizen, was shocked at the departure of the Portuguese “Special One” . He was quoted as saying last week, “I find Jose's 'eviction' hard to take. I could not see the blow coming so brutally. It changes an awful lot of things. At the moment, I am in the sort of nervous state I've never dreamed about before.” Testament to this irritated state of mind is the red card he was shown last Saturday in Chelsea’s stalemate with Fulham at Stamford Bridge after referee Atkinson booked him for a second time in the 74th minute of play. Initial reports coming out of the Chelsea camp had described Drogba as being ‘in tears’ on hearing the news about Mourinho’s departure from the club. With regards to the man who had lead Chelsea to two back-to-back Premiership titles in his first two seasons at the club Drogba said, “Many of us used to play first and foremost for the manager. It felt strange to return to our training centre at Cobham and no longer see Mourinho. That was when the shock hit home. There was a real family spirit in the camp. We could say anything to one another. That was our strength.” The player would cost Milan around €18 million. Not a cheap price but many feel that it is time for the club to shell out some serious money on a much needed striker that would give their offensive aspect a whole new dimension. |

The performance of the offensive line of Milan is unstable, and cannot be counted on as you can see. It seems that they will face problems like last year ( until Ronaldo arrived), so the best solution is a striker like Drogba, who can score at any time.
It would have been better if they got a striker like him in the transfer season though because It seems Ronaldo is not coming back soon, but ... |
