Drogba has not suited up for the Impact since the club revealed that he refused to be on the team for the penultimate matchday of the season on Oct. 16 after he was told he wasn't starting. The team has also disclosed that he's dealing with a back injury.
After Thursday's match, a team locker room photo tweeted by defender Hassoun Camara looks to feature Drogba:
