Even though the Ivorian signed a deal with the Chinese club, Shanghai, there is a clause in his contract which allows him to talk to http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Barcelona-c38604 for a transfer.
Last season Didier Drogba showed that age is not the determining factor when it comes to being a phenomenal striker.
The Ivorian was able to impress throughout his time at http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Chelsea-c38786, helping them win the UEFA Champions League final at Munich.
Last season, Chelsea found it hard to survive in the English Premier League. However, http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Roberto-c31294 Di Matteo came down as a miracle for the Premier League side and helped them qualify for the FA Cup final and the UEFA Champions League final.
During the Champions League, Chelsea faced a stern test in the shape of http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Napoli-c40003 during the pre-quarterfinals. Chelsea lost the first match against Napoli but they were able to overcome the deficit in the second round, and they qualified for the quarter-finals.
Being lucky, Chelsea faced a relatively easier side, Benfica, in the next round and managed to qualify for the semi-finals after winning 3-1 on goal aggregate.
Barcelona were the side they had to face in the semi-finals, and Chelsea were least favourites of the four semi-finalists to win the Champions League. However, Roberto Di Matteo laid down the perfect tactics against the Catalan giants and managed to win
the semi-final with a goal aggregate of 3-2.
After qualifying in the final against Munich, since the match was being played at Munich’s home, the Allianz arena, Chelsea were not expected to win. However, Di Matteo again decided to park the bus, and helped Chelsea survive till the penalty shootout.
http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Didier-Drogba-c11044 was the one who scored the winning penalty against Munich to win the final for the Blues.
Drogba then ended his 8-year spell with Chelsea and left the Premier League side after a free transfer. Even though the Ivorian has already signed a two and a half year deal with the Chinese club, it is being reported that there is a clause in his contract
which allows him to talk to Barcelona representatives.
Drogba might visit the Catalan capital on Tuesday and discuss the terms for his new contract.
