Corinthians' sporting director Flavio Adauto told a press conference in Sao Paulo that negotiations between the club and the player were at an advanced stage.
New details have shown that the Brazilian club has offered Didier a huge deal.
The contact includes:
- 1-year deal until (31/12/2017) worth $120,000 per month
- 6 round trip tickets from Brazil to Europe in Executive class
- 1 rental home in nice neighborhood in the amount of $20,000 rent per month
- 1 armored SUV
- 1 Full-time professional translator BRAZILIAN/ENGLISH
- Special bonus if top goal scorer in the Paulista
- Special bonus if top goal scorer in the Brazilian Championship
Didier Drogba has been known to sign with clubs that offer him good money, in the past he signed with a Chinese club for $310,000 a week. So the signing of Drogba with Brazilian club Corinthians wouldn't come to much surprise.
This photo that has been leaked could be fake but the reports of the team having an interest in him are real, so this begs the question, is Didier Drogba off to Brazil?
