Hiddink keen to get Montreal Impact star Drogba involved at Chelsea

Guus Hiddink has revealed he wants to get Didier Drogba involved in his coaching staff at Chelsea.

The Dutchman has taken the reins at Stamford Bridge in a caretaker role for the remainder of the season following the sacking of Jose Mourinho.

Drogba is currently contracted with MLS club Montreal Impact but Hiddink admits he would love to have the Ivory Coast striker as part of his staff it could be arranged.

"We would like to get him involved," Hiddink told Fox Sports.

"But he still has a contract with Montreal in the MLS, even though it is the close season for them now.

"We want to get important players involved with the club they care about. Drogba's heart is with Chelsea."
