Manchester United's Eric Bailly has revealed who he believes is the greatest African player in the history of football.

The Ivory Coast defender told United Review that a certain former Chelsea striker tops his list of greatest ever players from Africa.

"It has to be my friend, Didier Drogba," he said.

Bailly, 22, also identified the greatest player ever, in his opinion, who also scored the best goal he has seen.

"For me, it's Zinedine Zidane," he added.

"The goal in the Champions League final scored by Zidane against Bayer Leverkusen [May, 2002]."
