Drogba earmarks Chelsea return after Cech decision

Chelsea legend Didier Drogba has joked that he is also ready to play for the club again.

The Ivorian made his comments a day after Petr Cech was included in the club's 25-man Premier League squad.

Cech has been retired from football for the past 18 months.

When hearing about Cech being in the Blues squad as a precautionary measure in case the main three keepers are not available, Drogba went onto Twitter.

He tweeted: "I'm already on my way to Cobham."

While Blues fans would love the sight of Drogba wearing the shirt again, it is likely to be reserved for testimonials and other such occasions.
