The story of one of the most recognisable and successful players in
world football. Didier Drogba is renowned for his heading ability,
sharp shooting and sheer strength. He has played for his native
Ivory Coast and for clubs in France, China and Turkey, but it is as
a Chelsea striker that he is best known. His feats with Chelsea
have made him a cult hero among supporters. In Didier Drogba's
honest and revealing autobiography he will talk about life as an
immigrant in Paris, the importance of his education and how finding
success later than most professional footballers has kept him
grounded. In 2012 Didier was voted Chelsea's greatest ever player.
He talks from a privileged behind-the-scenes position about tactics
and how he felt mentally and physically as well as anecdotes from
the dressing room. Didier provides unique insight into important
and controversial matches from the first trophy he won with them in
2005 to the Premier League title a decade later; as well as what
persuaded him to stay when he was at his lowest ebb. Away from
football Drogba has been widely applauded for his involvement in
trying to broker peace in the Ivorian civil war - he is a UN
Goodwill Ambassador and does a huge amount of work with the Didier
Drogba Foundation - Time magazine named him one of the world's 100
most influential people. Go behind the scenes at Stamford Bridge
and find out about life on and off the field for this humble
Chelsea hero.
