Victor Osimhen has shared that he used to model his game after the legendary Chelsea player, Didier Drogba
Osimhen, who plays as a forward for the Nigerian national team, has always looked up to Drogba as his mentor.
He mentioned that since he was young, he admired Drogba’s style of playing, and he was inspired by the way Drogba connected with fans and the community.
“The whole world knows that I am inspired by Didier Drogba,” he said, according to Il Matino.
“When I was a child, they introduced me to his [Drogba] style of football, the passionate fans, and then the whole community pushed me to follow him.
“And so, I started to take an interest in him, to watch many clips, and learn from his movements and integrate them into my way of playing.”
Osimhen could follow in Drogba’s footsteps by making the move to Chelsea this summer, and he has been heavily linked to the Premier League side.
There are other clubs interested in the 25-year-old Nigerian goal-machine and this promises to be a truly exciting summer
