Chelsea striker Didier Drogba was having dinner in a Milan restaurant on Monday when by happenstance he ran into AC Milan vice president Adriano Galliani.
A brief conversation ensued, during which Galliani allegedly asked Drogba if he would like to join the Rossoneri, who are in search of a striker after Andriy Shevchenko left, coincidentally, for Chelsea this summer. Nobody knows why Drogba was in Milan, which only adds intrigue to his chance run-in with Galliani.
So far, Drogba has outscored Shevchenko two goals to one in the Premiership, and at the weekend Drogba came off the bench to score a goal with a wonderful individual effort in a win over Blackburn.
Italian media speculate that Galliani has taken the chat with Drogba and run, contacting the Blues to discuss the striker's availability. If the rumors are true, AC Milan are prepared to offer 30 million Euros for Drogba.
