Galliani: Chelsea Let Us Talk To Drogba

Galliani earlier this week told Sky Sports that his meeting with Chelsea chief executive Peter Kenyon was based around the transfer market, but only today have more details come to light.

The transfer guru spoke to the Gazzetta dello Sport about his discussions with the London club, revealing that Ivorian hitman Didier Drogba is near the top of their list.

"Chelsea have given us authorisation to open negotiations with Drogba," he said.

However, the vice-president revealed that another Milan target, Andrei Shevchenko, will not be returning to San Siro.

"Unfortunately, we received the response that we feared. Chelsea will not put Andrei up for sale. This conclusion is upsetting."

Meanwhile Galliani confirmed once again that the rossoneri are in talks with unsettled Barcelona star Samuel Eto'o.
