Responding to a Tweet which was celebrated him as one of the all-round Number 9 in Soccer, Didier Drogba names Ivorian strikers who inspired him, namely Laurent Pokou and Abdoulaye Traoré, the Black Diamond.

L’inspiration c’était les Pokou, les Ben Badi, le Diamant noir … Merci à eux #LEGENDES225🇨🇮 https://t.co/ByqDRtnipL
