Tottenham plan £10M offer for Chelsea strike-star Drogba

Tottenham boss Harry Redknapp is eyeing Chelsea striker Didier Drogba. The Telegraph says Redknapp wants to add proven experience as well as goals to his team and it is likely that Tottenham will inquire over the availability of Chelsea's Didier Drogba.

Between them, the current striking line-up of Peter Crouch, Roman Pavlyuchenko and Jermain Defoe have contributed just 13 Premier League goals all season. Despite having his season interrupting by contracting malaria, Drogba has still scored 13 times for Chelsea and was the leading Premier League goalscorer last season with 29 goals.

Yet with only one year remaining on his contract, there will clearly be a financial temptation for Chelsea to sell. A price of around £10 million may be considered good business by both clubs, although Chelsea will clearly be mindful of strengthening one of their main rivals.
