Salah broke Drogba’s old record with his goal against Bournemouth

The 40-year-old Drogba wrote:-

‘It was just a matter of days before this guy put my goal record as number one African top scorer to bed.

‘So proud of you lil bro, continue to put our continent as high as you can!!! Much love and blessings, like I said before the best is yet to come.’

The Ivorian lit up the Premier League with the Blues and while Salah is a very different threat, he still fills defences with the same fear.
