7- Didier Drogba- Galatasaray
Mourinho is looking for a powerful central striker that will be a physical presence up front for his Chelsea side next season and the Portuguese manager knows that there aren’t many better than Drogba. Mourinho enjoyed an excellent working relationship with the Ivorian during their time together at Chelsea, so much so that he was often linked with bringing the striker to Real Madrid. Reports suggest that Mourinho is considering bringing Drogba back to Chelsea to perform the role that he used to in his old Chelsea side.
The Portuguese coach believes that Drogba still has many years of excellent football left in him and feels that the striker can continue to play at the top level for at least another three years. Bringing Drogba back to Stamford Bridge would certainly be popular with fans who loved the Ivorian but it is unknown whether he would still be the same player that terrorized Premier League defences during Mourinho’s first spell at the club. However, reports have also suggested that Chelsea will offer Drogba the opportunity to start his coaching career alongside his playing career and could help coach the clubs young players. Following his highly successful career, Drogba would certainly be an excellent player for young players to work alongside.
