Major League Soccer side Chicago Fire have admitted that they are targeting Chelsea striker Didier Drogba as a potential new signing.
The 33-year-old frontman, who has been at the centre of transfer speculation in recent months, will remain at Stamford Bridge until the end of the season following the close of the winter window.
While the Ivorian has yet to sign a contract extension with the Blues, Chicago Fire manager Frank Klopas has revealed his intentions to clinch the forward.
"If there's a DP (designated player) that's out there that can fit in with our team, we're always open to it," Klopas told Goal.com.
"Drogba? Of course, yes, [the Fire would be interested]. There's talks but would he really come and what would it take?"
Drogba has also been linked with a big-money move to Chinese outfit Shanghai Shenhua.
