Drogba is a modern legend at Chelsea, where he scored 164 goals in 381 appearances over two spells with the Blues.He enjoyed a trophy-laden career at Stamford Bridge, winning four Premier League titles and the Champions League in 2012, as well as four FA Cup and three League Cup victories.The veteran frontman was expected to hang up his boots following the United Soccer League Cup final defeat to Louisville City earlier this month.And confirmation arrived on Wednesday evening, as Drogba posted a picture of him as a youngster on his social media accounts, accompanied by a farewell message.He said: “When I think of the last 20 years of my professional career, looking at this picture cant make me more proud of what I’ve achieved as a player but most importantly how this journey has shaped me as a man.“If anyone tells you your dreams are too big, just say thank you and work harder and smarter to turn them into reality. #alwaysbelieveDrogba scored the decisive penalty as Chelsea beat Bayern Munich to win the Champions League title in 20123
