Chelsea legend Didier Drogba is being linked with Napoli.

Napoli are in the market for a new striker after Arek Milik suffered a knee injury.

Calciomercato.it says Drogba, of Montreal Impact, is being considered for the January transfer window.

The MLS is in offseason at that time, so Drogba would be available to spend several months in Serie A.

The 38-year-old Ivorian could then return to Montreal, assuming he doesn't take part in the Africa Cup of Nations with the Ivory Coast.
