Didier Drogba, the Chelsea legend, expressed his opinion on the 22-year-old Arsenal star, stating that the player is overhyped and lacks any exceptional qualities. Drogba mentioned that he doesn’t hold a high opinion of the player, suggesting that there’s nothing particularly outstanding about him.

Chelsea legend Didier Drogba has expressed reservations about Arsenal defender William Saliba, stating that the young player hasn’t yet adapted to the necessary associations on the field.

Drogba, in an exclusive interview with ‘Get French Football News,’ acknowledged Saliba’s potential but suggested that the defender needs more game time to reach an exceptional level, emphasizing the importance of acclimating to specific partnerships before excelling at the international stage.

Drogba compared Saliba to other French defenders like Ibrahima Konate and Dayot Upamecano, indicating that Saliba still has room for improvement.

It’s worth noting that Saliba’s performances for Arsenal have earned him acclaim, although Drogba’s perspective focuses on the player’s need for more experience and development in specific associations.

Despite Drogba’s reservations, Arsenal values Saliba’s contributions, and the young defender is highly regarded within the club.
