Chelsea legend Didier Drogba has defended Jose Mourinho over accusations of racism from Galatasaray in a message addressed to his former club.

"You know how proud I was to wear the yellow and red jersey and my love for the most decorated club in Turkey!!

We all know how passionate and heated rivalries can be, and I’ve been lucky enough to experience it.

Ive seen the recent comments about Jose Mourinho.
Trust me when I tell you I have known Jose for 25 years and he is not a racist and history (past and recent ) is there to prove it.

Let’s focus on our games, support our brilliant lions and let’s win the league to get close to our 5 ⭐️

How can my “Dad” be a racist 🤷🏾‍♂️
Come on guys"
