Ten years ago, Didier Drogba turned down the request of a young lad who wanted to take a selfie with him. That was when Chelsea lost to Barcelona in the Champions League.
According to him (Drogba), he said he snubbed him because he was angry by the referee’s decision as Chelsea crashed out of the UEFA Champions League, owing to Andrew Iniesta late goal at Stamford Bridge.
He further explained that a ten years old boy ran to him and wanted to take a picture with him after the match, and he said No. He never knew who the boy was until he discovered recently that it was Kylian Mbappe.
Drogba who co-hosted the Ballon d’Or event took the day as an opportunity to grant his (Mbappe’s) request by taking pictures with him.
10 years isn’t short. Within this period Mbappe became grown-up footballer recognized across the world. He was nothing, then, but a voice to reckon with now. Shortly after Didier Drogba talked about paying his debt to him, he ordered the audience to stand while he took pictures with the Ballon d’Or nominee (Mbappe).
