The Best FIFA Football Awards - Green Carpet Arrivals
The all-time top scorer for Ivory coast still has a lot left as a footballer.

Drogba is best known for his time at Chelsea, as with the English side, he was able to win their very first UEFA Champions League title. He is known to have gained relatively late breakthrough in his career, but that does not shy away from the fact that the former Ivorian International is easily one of the best forwards in the world. A set-piece specialist and often a threat to the defenders, Drogba has gone past some of the tightest defensive lines in world football, including the duo of Gerard Pique and Carles Puyol of Barcelona.

The Ivorian maestro is currently playing for the American side Phoenix Rising, where he has scored a total of 15 goals in over 20 appearances.
