Ivorian striker, Didier Drogba
has launched his own men's underwear range which will see a percentage from
every pair of pants sold go to his charity foundation.
The
former Chelsea striker teamed up with Marseille-based designers HOM last year
to create an exclusive range of
men's underwear and beachwear which will go on
sale on May 1. The 36-year-old took to his official Instagram account to post
an exclusive image of himself wearing the new range.
Drogba wrote: "I'm very proud to announce the launch of my underwear
brand. The first underwear brand that will be launched to support a foundation,
my foundation, The didierdrogbafoundation."
Speaking
of his new venture with HOM, Drogba added: "By producing my own line of
underwear I’m able to achieve two goals; to design a fashionable men’s
underwear range, and to create a product that will directly support my
charitable foundation - to aid in healthcare and education in the Ivory
Coast."
The
Galatasaray forward recently received a hero's welcome upon his return to
Stamford Bridge as the Turkish side were knocked out of the Champions League by
Chelsea in April. Drogba failed to get on the score sheet over the two legs as Chelsea fans celebrated the return of the player who scored the winning penalty to hand the Blues Champions League success in 2012.
