Chelsea icon Drogba happy to be reunited with Mourinho

Chelsea icon Didier Drogba is delighted to be playing for Jose Mourinho again.

The former Ivory Coast international was brought back to Stamford Bridge on a free transfer by Mourinho, the manager who signed him back in 2004.

Drogba reveals their relationship is as strong as ever and is enjoying the responsibility of being one of Mourinho's influential leaders in the dressing room.

He said: "To be in Chelsea with him (Mourinho) is really special. He trusts me and I try to give things back when I am on the pitch. Even outside in the dressing room with everyone, we have a good spirit."
