French giants reveal Didier Drogba bid

Didier Drogba: £24 million moves from Marseille in 2004
Marseille president Jean-Claude Dassier has confirmed that the ambitious French champions attempted  to re-sign Didier Drogba from Chelsea this summer, six years after the Ivorian quit the Stade Velodrome for Stamford Bridge.


Drogba, who cost the Blues £24 million in 2004, is understood to have rejected the opportunity to return to the club at which he made his reputation but is believed to be keen for one last chance with l’OM when he finishes his business in London.Speaking about the attempted swoop, Dassier revealed to French press:


"We even tried to bring in Drogba, but this has not been possible," Dassier said. "We'll see, you should never give up in life."
