Super Eagles striker, Victor Osimhen has named his two childhood heroes.
Osimhen spoke after leading Galatasaray to beat Ajax 3-0 in the UEFA Champions League on Wednesday.
The 26-year-old revealed that his brother and Chelsea legend Didier Drogba were his childhood heroes.
Recall that the Nigerian scored a hat-trick as Galatasaray defeated Ajax at the Johan Cruijff ArenA.
“For me, it’s my brother in life and then, in football, it’s Didier Drogba,” Osimhen said as quoted by UEFA’s official website when revealing his childhood heroes.
“I saw the way my brother used to work because he sells sports newspapers. And if you sell sports newspapers in Nigeria, you can stay on the roadside, or you have your newspaper in your hand and you walk through the cars and hold up. He was the person who actually inspired me to hustle so hard.
“In the footballing aspect, it was Drogba because I saw him and I tried to model my game to his, and I tried to see how he plays, and how he’s living life outside of football.”
