Drogba robbed in Ivory Coast Hotel

Galatasaray striker Didier Drogba was robbed in his hotel while on
holiday in Abidjan.

The 35-year-old striker, who was back in his Ivory Coast homeland for
a brief visit, returned to his room on June 12 to find his luggage
unpacked and some €7,500 (£6,400) missing.

The Chelsea legend immediately reported the incident to the management
of Hotel Ivoire, a five-star establishment and the country's biggest
hotel, where several players from the national team spend their
holidays.

Nobody has been arrested for burglary and the funds have not been
recovered, according to the police, despite an investigation being
opened.

Ivory Coast booked their place to the third and final round of World
Cup qualifiers without Drogba but coach Sabri Lamouchi has suggested
that the Elephants' all-time top scorer could return to the
international fold for the next round of friendlies.
