Huddersfield Town striker Steve Mounie says that he aims to follow in the footsteps of Chelsea legend Didier Drogba in Premier League.

The £11.5million summer-arrival from Montpellier, who has already scored two goals for the Terriers, reveals that the Chelsea hero was a role-model for him in his youth days.

"I watched him, he was a top player," the 22-year-old told Sky Sports.

"Didier Drogba was one of the best I used to watch.

"He was a great player and an example for me in the Premier League. I try to follow his steps.
