Juventus on verge of loan deal for Shanghai Shenhua's Drogba

Shanghai Shenhua star Didier Drogba is on the verge of joining Juventus on loan according to varied reports.

The Chelsea icon, who has been training with his former club, has been linked with a number of other clubs during the Chinese Super League offseason and it is believed that he could be back in Europe over winter.

However, Drogba is currently preparing for the African Cup of Nations with Ivory Coast, which kick off in South Africa on January 19, meaning his potential short-term spell in Turin will be shortened even further before he returns to Shanghai prior to the CSL season commencing in March.
