Ivorian footballer and Galatasaray FC striker Didier Drogba has reportedly bought a 5 per cent stake in his country’s largest mining company.
The former Chelsea forward according to African Review paid $74 Million to acquire part of the state’s shares in the company.
Drogba had expressed interest in
purchasing the stakes at the state owned mine last March but encountered
difficulties sealing the deal. It took the intervention of the
country’s president Alassane Ouattara before the deal was concluded last Friday.
