London, Nov.4 (ANI): Chelsea coach Carlo Ancelotti has said that he would not swap Ivory Coast striker Didier Drogba for any other striker in the world.
Hailing Chelsea’s entry into the last 16 of the Champions League, thanks to a double strike by Drogba, Ancelotti said: “I don’t know for sure if Didier is the best striker in the world, but I know for certain that I want to keep him. I would not change him for any other striker.”
The Ivory Coast star, suspended for a live TV rant after last season’s semi-final defeat by Barcelona, has now scored 12 goals already this season, reports The Sun.
Drogba, 31, said: “I think I am playing the best football of my career.” (ANI)
