GOLDEN FOOT

Former Chelsea player Didier Drogba won the 2013 Golden Foot award. He had to beat a list of star-studded players with some of the best footballers over the age of 28 and still are playing.

Zlatan Ibrahimovic was the previous winner of the trophy and now Drogba became the 1^st African player to obtain the award.

The list of players include: Cristiano Ronaldo, Andres Iniesta, Frank Lampard, Andrea Pirlo Samuel Eto’o and Miroslav Klose.

Even though he is 35 years old, he still continues accomplishing amazing feats. He guided Ivory Coast to a crucial 3-1 victory over Senegal when playing in the play-off of the CAF World Cup and pushing his team even further by scoring goals in the Super Lig and the Champions League.

Galatasaray snatched him up hoping to construct a team that can fight against the top dogs of Europe as they also signed Sneijder from Inter Milan.

Striker of Liverpool Daniel Sturridge stated that Didier Drogba gave him some advices that has helped him in his career.

“I saw Didier in Miami this summer,” Sturridge told a national paper.

“He said the strongest thing an individual can have is the mental strength.

“He told me, ‘It’s not about the tactical, it’s not about the technical, and it’s not about the physical.

“If you believe in yourself it will set you apart.”

Sturridge and Drogba know each other from the time they spent together when playing in Chelsea some years ago.

The veteran spoke about his future and he expressed his desire to continue playing for 4 more years.

“I hope God will grant me the required health and conditions to be able to play four more years,” he said.

DROGBA MAY RETURN

Chelsea manager José Mourinho has hinted that Didier Drogba may return to the club where he had the best spell of his career, but he does not know whether the Ivory Coast international will return as a player. Drogba is regarded as one of the best Chelsea players in the history of the club. During his eight years at Stamford Bridge, he demonstrated incredible quality to score 150 goals that has put him close to the all-time scorers at the club. The 35-year-old was brought to the club by the manager José Mourinho, who has returned for a second spell at the West London outfit.

Mourinho enjoys a great relationship with Drogba and he has not been hiding this fact. Drogba left Chelsea when he was still at the top of his game, as he had helped the club win the Champions league with his final kick of the ball. He is now with Turkish club Galatasaray and is once again looking to become one of the best strikers in the world. Mourinho has said that the young players at Chelsea should take the inspiration from Drogba. He has also talked about the possibility of the Ivory Coast international returning to the club in some way, but probably not as a player.

“Drogba is worshipped in this club and this is perfectly normal. I think one day he’ll return to Chelsea. He is a very important player in Chelsea’s history and will always be in the memory of the fans, the management, the owner and his team-mates. Didier will have a future at Chelsea. As a coach? I do not know,” said the Portuguese manager. Despite being 35 years of age, Drogba still continues to play football at the highest level. It may be at least a few years before he retires from football.
