Former Chelsea striker Didier Drogba used his first press conference as a Shanghai Shenhua player to plead with the owners of his new club to ensure Frank Lampard and John Terry follow him from Stamford Bridge to China.
Drogba touched down in Shanghai on Saturday and was greeted by thousands of fans who treated the Ivorian to a rapturous welcome following his decision to sign for the club on a free transfer.
The 34-year-old will join up in Shanghai with former teammate Nicolas Anelka, who signed for Shenhua in January, and hopes that even more players swap blue of Chelsea for the blue of his new club.
