The Ivorian did not know that the Blues defender was the captain when he first arrived at Stamford Bridge, due to his limited knowledge of the club

Didier Drogba has disclosed how he thought John Terry was a reserve player when he first joined Chelsea.

The Ivorian signed from Marseille in 2004 and went on to win three Premier League titles - before adding another in his second spell during the 2014-15 season - four FA Cups and the Champions League trophy.

However, he admitted that his knowledge of English football was so poor when he first arrived at Stamford Bridge that he did not recognise the Chelsea captain.
