Koulibaly has expressed his joy at receiving a note from the Ivorian legend, whom he used to admire when he was small.
“I used to watch Chelsea games when I was younger, like when Didier Drogba arrived from Marseille to Chelsea,” Koulibaly remarked.
“Then they won the Champions League and he scored the penalty, so when I signed for Chelsea, he texted me, and I was overjoyed.”
Meanwhile, Koulibaly called Chelsea legend John Terry to seek permission to wear the No. 26 jersey at the club.
“The 26 was extremely significant to me, and I appreciate you calling,” Terry responded.
“It’s no problem for me if you take it, it’s an amazing delight.” I wish you luck since I know how significant the number 26 was for me, and I’ve seen you wear it as well.
“I give you the 26 as my joy, mate.”
“No pressure, mate,” Terry added. Continue to win trophies for us.”
