Didier Drogba hopes to be fit for Chelsea's opening game
of the Premier League season after hobbling out of the victory over
Ferencvaros.
The striker, making his second appearance since rejoining
the club, only played 29 minutes during Sunday's friendly in Budapest before
being substituted with an ankle injury.
Without the Ivorian, Chelsea went to beat their Hungarian
opponents 2-1 thanks to goals from midfield duo Ramires and Cesc Fabregas.
Chelsea begin their league campaign with a trip to
Burnley next Monday, but Drogba has suggested he may not be available as he
awaits further news on his injury.
"I twisted my ankle and I couldn't continue,"
he told the club's official website.
"In the next few days we are going to do some
treatment and I hope everything will be better."
Drogba made a sensational return to Stamford Bridge last
month after being released from his contract at Turkish club Galatasaray.
During his first spell in England the Ivorian scored 157
goals in 341 appearances and collected three Premier League titles, four FA
Cups and two League Cups.
