Popular footballer, Didier Drogba’s marriage to Lalla Diakate has crashed like a tokunbo car engine.

The Chelsea legend took to his Instagram page to make the announcement.

He wrote; “I’m not in the habit of discussing my private life.”

“But, because of speculation in the media today, I can confirm that sadly, after 20 years together, Lalla and I took the difficult decision to separate last year.”

“We remain very close, and our main priorities have been to protect our children and our family’s private life. May God bless you.”
