Summary

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, with whom he still plays, have made him a cult hero among supporters.

Away from football Drogba has been widely applauded for his involvement in trying to broker peace in the Ivorian civil war - he was a UN goodwill ambassador, and 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 Chelsea hero.

Everything you'd expect Drogba to be

What moved me most is Drogba's commitment to CSR and involvement in his charity, especially when he says that he hopes to build a school in the future because when people are more educated, they won't have to start war because they can talk matters out and they won't be used by politicians to cause chaos since they can reason on their own.
