The striker scored the winning penalty for the Blues in the 2012 final in the perfect swansong to his eight-year career at Stamford Bridge.

Drogba will now return to west London with Galatasaray on March 18 for a last-16 knockout clash.

And the hitman is delighted to get the chance to meet old friends.

“What a draw, I’m the luckiest man in this competition,” Drogba wrote on social media site Instagram.

“In both games I’ll be playing home!!!!! See you in few months.”

Chelsea midfielder John Obi Mikel admits he can’t wait to see pal Drogba back in London – but has urged the Blues to make it a miserable return for the Ivory Coast international.

“I’m sure he will text very soon, he’s probably having a drink after seeing the draw, but it will be great to have him back,’ said Nigerian midfielder Mikel.

“We shouldn’t get carried away about him coming back; he is a player that was here for eight years, he won major trophies, he’s a big player with a big personality.

“Obviously he had to move on but Chelsea continue, we have to win games, he’s coming here with his new club, Galatasaray, who we want to beat.

“So, we shouldn’t get carried away about him coming back, we want to win the game.” A Daily Star report.
