TRANSFER DONE DEAL WITH PERCY. Didier Drogba has re-signed for Chelsea on a one-year deal. The Ivorian, 36, won 10 trophies at Chelsea from 2004 to 2012 and was a free agent after leaving Galatasaray. Manager Jose Mourinho had earlier said the forward belongs at Stamford Bridge - but that any deal would be made in a non-emotional way. Drogba told Chelseas official site: It was an easy decision - I couldnt turn down the opportunity to work with Jose again. He said: Everyone knows the special relationship I have with this club and it has always felt like home to me. My desire to win is still the same and I look forward to the opportunity to help this team. I am excited for this next chapter of my career.
