‘Thank you, son’: Didier Drogba reacts to former Blues teammate’s farewell to Chelsea following summer departure
Chelsea icon Didier Drogba has thanked Kurt Zouma for his contributions to Chelsea’s progress following the center-back’s transfer to West Ham United.
The 26-year-old has formally ended his seven-and-a-half=year career at Chelsea and completing a move to West Ham on a reported £29.8m deal (Sky Sports).
It is far from exemplary, of course, from the Chelsea supporters’ perspective, since West Ham are after all London rivals.
But in his interview with West Ham’s official website, Zouma revealed that staying in London is significant to him and his family since his children were born in and are used to the city.
The France international has also sent a message to Chelsea on social media, displaying his gratitude towards the club at which he spent the majority of his career.
