Ivorian international and former Chelsea starlet Didier Drogba beats a
high profile list of world’s best players who are 28 years and older still
playing to become the first African Player to win the very covetous Golden
Football Award. The Galatasaray
striker won the 2013 Golden Foot, and was presented with the award at a ceremony
in Monte Carlo
The 35-year-old player was nominated for the award alongside Cameroon
international and recent Chelsea player Samuel Eto’o Fils, Cristiano Ronaldo
(Portugal /Real Madrid), Andres Iniesta (Spain / Barcelona), Frank Lampard
(England / Chelsea), David Trezeguet (France / River Plate), Andrea Pirlo
(Italy / Juventus), Iker Casillas (Spain / Real Madrid), David Beckham
(England) and Miroslav Klose (Germany / Lazio). The 2012 edition was won by
Zlatan Ibrahimovic.
In the eleventh edition of the public voted award, the 35-year-old follows
in the footsteps of Zlatan Ibrahimovic - who won it in 2012 - and becomes the
first African player to scoop the prestigious prize.
Way to go Drogba!
