Didier Drogba Player Profile Vital Stats:

Height: Six feet, two inches

Age: 37 years

Native Country: Ivory Coast

Current Club: Chelsea FC
Tall, talented, and resilient, Didier Drogba has been a consistent presence in the professional association football world for the better part of two decades now. After a low-scoring season at Chelsea FC, though, it looks like Drogba's lengthy and impressive senior career could finally be drawing to a close. With his contract at Chelsea expiring, and no real rumors or speculation about where he could end up next year, it's unclear right now whether Didier is considering retirement or looking to do a brief stint at a less high-profile club before closing the curtain on his senior career. One thing does seem certain, though, and it's that Didier won't wear the Chelsea jersey again after this year.
