Ballou Jean-Yves Tabla of Montreal Impact may be just 18 years old but he already has the support of Didier Drogba.
The Ivory Coast-born midfielder made 15 appearances in the MLS last season for the Canadian side, making 9 starts and scoring twice.
Drogba spotted Tabla in the Montreal youth setup when he was playing for the club before departing the MLS side on bad terms due to a clash with manager Mauro Biello. The youngster impressed Drogba so much that the Chelsea legend has reportedly recommended the player to his former side.
According to 'TMW', the Londoners could submit an offer for the player in the coming weeks.
