Didier Drogba, Chelsea legend sued for £1m by Canadian shoemaker.

            The Chelsea legend failed to show up in one of the events he was meant to appear in, in London. Drogba retired from international football last November after representing Phoenix rising for just one year. He is been sued for £1 million by a Canadian shoemaker for deliberately avoiding an event at London's Selfridges in 2017. The 41-year-old was said to have struck an informal agreement to promote Jordan Pascal's luxury JAD brand during his reign at Montreal Impact three seasons ago. However report have it that Pascal has now sued the former Ivorian striker for £1.25million in lost earnings, expenses and damages.
             Pascal says in his lawsuit: "Even though the contract was not formally signed, Drogba explicitly accepted its terms, His behaviour trapped me in a maze of broken promises and negligence, It exhausted my finances, destroyed my reputation in the fashion industry, made investors go away and led me to the brink of ruin and bankruptcy". Meanwhile, the former Chelsea star, who won the Champions League title with the club in 2012 will hope the case is booted out when heard at Montreal's high court. Drogba's lawyers responded: "The allegations are false and defamatory. We will take the appropriate measures. "He has always respected his obligations, as though the two parties were tied by the agreement for him to be the brand's ambassador.
