Didier Drogba asks Fernando Torres to consider joining Chelsea

Chelsea striker Didier Drogba has reportedly Liverpool’s top scorer Fernando Torres to accept an offer from The Blues if it comes his way.

According to The Sun, the FA Cup finalists are ready to launch a £50 million bid for Liverpool's top scorer.

Drogba and Torres fired 58 goals between them this season.

Drogba said: "Every time a new player comes here it is making the club bigger and giving us strength. If there is a chance for Torres to come he will be welcome - because any help is welcome!"

Drogba hopes to add to his 36-goal tally in Saturday's FA Cup final with Portsmouth.

He insisted: "I want to finish my career here. I love this club."
