CHELSEA fans are convinced that club legend Didier Drogba is trying to tempt Victor Osimhen to Stamford Bridge.

Doubt was cast over the striker’s future at Napoli last month when the club mocked him on social media.
His agent threatened to sue the Serie A champions, but Osimhen has since called for unity.
Although the 24-year-old has seemingly put the controversy behind him, Mauricio Pochettino and Todd Boehly still believe they can bring him to the Premier League.
And fans think that Drogba is also trying to talk him around.
During a round of quickfire questions with Sports Illustrated, the former Chelsea star was asked about his favourite active player.
He revealed that it was Osimhen, leaving fans stunned.
One person commented: “Our agent for Osimhen OMG.”
Another wrote: “He needs to have a word with Osimhen and get him to the bridge.”

A third fan added: “Didi tell Victor Stamford bridge is home.”
While a fourth said that Drogba is “100% texting Osimhen and telling him to join us in January.”
Chelsea is just one of several clubs interested in signing Osimhen.
Arsenal, Manchester United and Bayern Munich have also been linked with a swoop for the striker.
