Olympique Marseille admit a return to the club for Chelsea striker Didier Drogba is a non-starter.
L'OM sporting director Jose Anigo told French radio station RMC: "The problem with Didier is that even if he wanted to come to Marseille, there is a financial problem.
"For a French club, he represents 12million euros per year. He is inaccessible to all French clubs."
