'I couldn't help but love Chelsea legend Drogba' - Fiorentina forward Kouame

Fiorentina foward Christian Kouame has spoken about how he could not resist former Chelsea star and follow Ivory Coast striker Didier Drogba when he was growing up.

The 42-year old spent the best part of a combined nine years helping the Blues to 14 titles including the Champions League in 2012.

Drogba scored the decisive equaliser in normal time against Bayern Munich and the winning penalty kick that gave Chelsea their first-ever European crown.

Drogba scored a total of 164 goals for the West London outfit and provided 86 assists in 381 competitive outings.
