Beijing, Feb 3(ANI): Chelsea striker Didier Drogba will be given the number 11 shirt if he joins the Chinese soccer club Shanghai Shenhua after his contract with Chelsea expires at the end of the season, according to the Chinese media.
Although his shirt number at the club has already been sealed, but talks between the two sides are still at an impasse, the China Daily reports.
Shanghai Shenhua's owner Zhu Jun arrived in Switzerland earlier this week to hold talks with Drogba's agent in an effort to sway the 34-year-old striker for a move to China.
The Chinese club's board member Zhou Jun told Soccer News the deadlock has not been broken despite owner Zhu Jun's greatest efforts and patience.
"(In terms of chasing Drogba) I hope all we need to do is just reserving the No 11 shirt for him, but that is not reality," said Zhou.
"We will not give up chasing him before this July," he added. (ANI)
