Drogba and Eto’o congratulate Chelsea after Europa League triumph

Maurizio Sarri’s men secured the European trophy after decimating English rivals Arsenal at the Baki Olimpiya Stadionu

Chelsea's African legends Didier Drogba and Samuel Eto’o have lauded the Blues after winning the Uefa Europa League title on Wednesday.

A second-half brace from Eden Hazard and strikes from Olivier Giroud and Pedro Rodriguez rendered Alex Iwobi's late effort a consolation as Maurizio Sarri’s men thrashed Arsenal 4-1 in Baku.

Drogba spent nine seasons with the Blues and scored 104 goals in 254 league appearances during his two stints with the side, between 2004-2012 and 2014-2015.
