Didier Drogba could be sidelined for anywhere from four to six months with an ankle injury picked up in the game against Hungarian side Ferencváros on Sunday. The Blues striker landed awkwardly on his right foot after challenging for a header and initial examinations suggest he has torn ligaments.

Sunday's fixture was Drogba's first start for Chelsea since returning to the club on a one-year-deal after stints at Shanghai Shenhua and Galatasaray.
