Didier Drogba has re-joined Chelsea on a one-year contract

[b]Drogba left Chelsea on a dramatic high in 2012, scoring the winning penalty in the shoot-out which clinched the Champions League title against Bayern Munich.

The 36-year-old then joined Galatasaray but once his contract with the Turkish side ended he was linked with a return to Stamford Bridge, and Italian champions Juventus.

Chelsea boss Jose Mourinho insists nostalgia had nothing to do with his decision to sign the Ivory Coast striker.

Mourinho told the club’s website: “He’s coming because he’s one of the best strikers in Europe. I know his personality very well and I know if he comes back he’s not protected by history or what he’s done for this club previously. He is coming with the mentality to make more history.”

Drogba said: ‘It was an easy decision - I couldn't turn down the opportunity to work with Jose again. Everyone knows the special relationship I have with this club and it has always felt like home to me.

“My desire to win is still the same and I look forward to the opportunity to help this team. I am excited for this next chapter of my career.”[/b]

Chelsea Football Club is delighted to announce the return of Didier
Drogba. The striker has signed a one-year contract.
Drogba of course needs no introduction.
When he came to the end of his previous contract in 2012 it was only
weeks after he had stroked the ball from the penalty spot into the
Bayern Munich net to place Chelsea on top of the European summit
for the first time.
His earlier equalising header in that Champions League final was his
157th goal in 341 appearances, a total placing him fourth in the
club's all-time highest-scorer list.
On signing his contract, Drogba said: ‘It was an easy decision - I
couldn't turn down the opportunity to work with Jose again.
Everyone knows the special relationship I have with this club and it
has always felt like home to me.
‘My desire to win is still the same and I look forward to the
opportunity to help this team. I am excited for this next chapter of my
career.’
Jose Mourinho said: ‘He’s coming because he’s one of the best
strikers in Europe. I know his personality very well and I know if he
comes back he’s not protected by history or what he’s done for this
club previously. He is coming with the mentality to make more
history.’
His 34 goals in European competition remains a Chelsea record, as do
his nine strikes in nine cup finals.
During the Ivorian’s first eight years with the club, Drogba won three
Premier League titles, four FA Cups, two League Cups as well as the
Champions League triumph. He has been named Chelsea's Player of
the Year and Players' Player of the Year and has won the Premier
League Golden Boot twice.
Since leaving Chelsea in 2012 he has played for Shanghai Shenhua
and Galatasaray, memorably making a return to Stamford Bridge last
season when we beat the Turkish club in the Champions League
Round of 16.
He has continued his international career and appeared in all three of
Ivory Coast’s games at the World Cup, taking his caps total to 104
with 64 goals scored.

He should have stayed away. He left when the ovation was loudest. I fear he might not be as

effective as he once was and the fickle fans of his club would waste no time in berating him or

Mou if his second spell runs into a jam.
