Chelsea legend Didier Drogba has broken his silence on Mason Mount's departure from the club just two months after he issued a scathing assessment of Blues owner Todd Boehly.
Mount's move to Manchester United was announced on Wednesday morning, but the England international took it upon himself to confirm he will be leaving Chelsea on Tuesday night with a short video message uploaded to his Instagram profile. Mount stopped short of declaring his next destination in the video and instead chose to focus on his highlights in west London.
Replies to the video flooded in, but Drogba's stood out given his own status as a Chelsea hero. The Ivorian icon uploaded the short clip to his own story alongside the caption: "Another prince leaving the club of his life. Thank you and all the very best to you, champs," accompanied with a hashtag that read "#oneofourowncfc."
