Didier Drogba reveals his pick to win the Champions League this season

Meanwhile, Barcelona and Inter Milan set the stage for a thrilling second-leg showdown after battling to a dramatic 3-3 draw in their own semi-final opener on Wednesday.

Drogba, who famously netted Chelsea’s decisive goal in their 2012 Champions League final triumph over Bayern Munich, was a persistent thorn in Arsenal’s side during their fierce encounters.

The Ivorian striker, strongly connected to Marseille—PSG’s longtime rivals in Ligue 1—remained hesitant to back either Arsenal or Luis Enrique’s team ahead of their decisive meeting next week.

When asked who he would rather see in the Champions League final between Arsenal and PSG, Drogba told RMC Sport: ‘Do you really want to know the answer? Neither team.

‘But I think it’s good for French football to have a team that’s gone this far. Good luck to them.’

Asked if it was painful to watch PSG progress thus far in the tournament, Drogba replied: ‘No comment! It’s the truth.

‘Good for them but it won’t change anything. Forever the leaders, as they say.’

Drogba then revealed his preference to win the Champions League would be either Barcelona or Inter.
