Older than most of his fellow players, Drogba was late to the international football arena league. Undaunted by this handicap, he has gone on to make a name for himself — the Ivorian striker’s performance has been invariably solid. It wasn’t until Chelsea signed him for $37 million that he garnered any attention from the wider public, but his relative obscurity is in no way indicative of a lack of skill. Viewed as one of the most promising African football players, he joined Essien in signing a major endorsement deal with Puma.
