Kylian Mbappe on Drogba and Eto’o Comparison : Asked about his preference between African football legends Samuel Eto’o and Didier Drogba, Kylian Mbappé gave a clear answer.
During his visit to Cameroon, the 2018 world champion Kylian Mbappé gave an interview to NCI, an Ivorian media.
During this interview, the journalist asked the PSG star about his preference between the two African legends Samuel Eto’o and Didier Drogba. It is with care and intelligence that the captain of France avoided controversy by giving an answer full of wisdom.
“Eto’o or Drogba? I’m not going to answer this question because people won’t understand. If you pick one, people will think you’re belittling the other. They were too strong to be denigrated. These two players have marked their countries with their footprints but not only. They had an impact that went beyond the field so I have nothing but respect.”
Both former strikers won the UEFA Champions League ; Eto’o did it twice with Barcelona and once at Inter Milan while Drogba was the hero of Chelsea’s historic success in 2012 against Bayern Munich.
The Cameroonian won two Africa Cup of Nations but Drogba did not , with Ivory Coast winning the trophy immediately after the latter’s retirement from international football.
