Didier Drogba to Napoli reports pick up momentum

The Partenopei need a striker after Arkadiusz Milik completely ruptured the ACL in his left knee while on international duty, ruling him out for four to six months.

Drogba would be available on loan from Montreal Impact, as MLS takes its winter break.

The Ivory Coast international has never played in Serie A before and would also be a valuable addition in the Champions League, a trophy he won at Chelsea.

Napoli do not want to spend too much filling in for Milik, so a six-month loan from Montreal Impact would fit the bill.

The 38-year-old has played for Le Mans, Guingamp, Olympique Marseille, Chelsea, Shanghai Shenhua and Galatasaray during his career.
