Ivory Coast forward Didier Drogba is reportedly discussing a move to La Liga giants Real Madrid.

Drogba is in talks with former boss Jose Mourinho about a two-year deal to take him to the Bernabeu, according to the Daily Mail.

The 34-year-old striker had a good final season with Chelsea, who won the Champions League for the first time, but he announced last week he was leaving the Blues this summer.

Drogba was linked with a move to join former teammate Nicolas Anelka at Shanghai Shenhua in China but the club is expected to sack the Frenchman soon.
