Florentino Perez signing Chelsea striker Didier Drogba to make Jose Mourinho stay at Real Madrid
La Liga giants Real Madrid are reportedly preparing for a £15 million bid for unsettled Chelsea star striker http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Didier-Drogba-c11044. Madrid are desperate to retain the services of Portuguese manager Jose Mourinho and think bringing in Drogba during the summer transfer
window is their best bet.
Mourinho is rumored to be closing on a Madrid exit after constant power struggles with club president Florentino Perez. The former http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Chelsea-c38786 boss is known to want complete control of the club he is managing, the lack of which was mainly why he parted ways
with the Blues.
This has led to speculation about the Madrid president willing to hand over some more power to Mourinho, which will involve summer signings. Upon his arrival Mourinho signed many impressive names but they were unable to break http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Barcelona-c38605. If anything, they
are left more miserable after their 5-0 thrashing by Barcelona in a La Liga match.
If Mourinho chooses to continue with the Spanish side he will be determined to bring in signings which he is sure will make a difference. The heavy dependency on Gonzalo Higuain back fired with the player’s back injury which saw him being sidelined for the
rest of the season.
That has forced Mourinho to rely on out of form French striker http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Emmanuel-Adebayor-c12526. Despite the City man putting up a decent effort, he is expected to return to the Eastlands in the summer,
leaving Madrid without a reliable striker once again.
Despite being 33 years old and considered to be well past his prime, Didier Drogba would make a good signing for Madrid. The Ivory Coast international has shown no signs of ageing and has the quality and potential to serve as the first choice striker for
any top side.
The reason for him rumored to be leaving Stamford Bridge is simple and worth £50 million; http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Liverpool-c39809 striker cost Chelsea a record breaking fee and was mainly brought in to replace the much older Drogba.
Chelsea boss Carlo Ancelotti and owner Roman Abramovich are planning to bring in younger players and offload some of the older players. In that case the likes of Didier Drogba, http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Paulo-Ferreira-c29445 are expected to make a summer
exit.
It is highly unlikely the other players will fetch a decent price but Drogba has the potential to get up to an estimated £15 million for his services. The deal will benefit both parties, with Real gaining an excellent striker and Chelsea making money off
a player they no longer require.
Real Madrid General Director http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Jorge-c19120 Valdano has had his fair share of spats with Mourinho, but he realized the manager’s demand for more control. He revealed they were prepared to give the manager what he wanted as long as he agreed to stay at the club.
Valdano said in a statement, “He's a coach who wants that autonomy, he needs to have control. It's then that he is comfortable. Now he has declared that he is very protected by the club and feels very well and could even renew his contract. So the goal has
been achieved.”
