Wesley Fofana reveals which Chelsea legend he idolised as a youngster, as he becomes the latest player to share his memories of the first time he went to see football live, which in this case was all about seeing his hero in action.

My first game was in Marseille. I went to watch Olympique de Marseille, it was crazy. I went to see Drogba in the stadium and it was crazy. It was a big dream for me and I was very happy, it was very nice.

It was in the old Stade Velodrome, I was quite young. The atmosphere was mad, it was a very big stadium, and it's even bigger now. In that city, the football is their life, it is everything and that makes it a crazy atmosphere at the stadium.

It was just incredible. I went to the stadium just for Didier Drogba. It was the dream for me as a kid to see Drogba and that's when I got to watch him play. It was a little dream.

Before I was thinking the players are like this and like this, but when you go to the stadium you are close to the players and it’s completely different, you see it in a new way. The whole thing made a big impression on me, but more the players on the pitch because you’re very close and you feel the players and it’s just very, very crazy.

I don’t remember who the game was against or who won, but I do remember that Drogba scored and I went mad. I even had the same hair as Drogba when I was young, I was a big fan. I copied his hair and I went to the stadium just for him so when he scored it was perfect. I remember that bit, it’s a very good memory.
