      Didier Drogba was confronted by YouTuber Sharky during a charity match
      The Chelsea legend was put on the spot as he made a shock revelation
      He led the Blues to four Premier League titles, four FA Cups and the Champions League after a £24million move from Marseille in 2004.
      But the one club who really suffered at the hands of Drogba were Arsenal.
      Drogba scored 13 goals in 15 games against the Gunners, helping himself to 10 wins and just one defeat in the process.
      And the Ivory Coast icon was confronted about his Arsenal record by YouTuber Sharky at the weekend.

      As Sharky was preparing in the changing room, he asked Drogba why he scored so many goals against Arsenal.
      And the Chelsea legend was left gasping “whaaat?” during the hilarious encounter — during which he admitted to being a Gunners fan.
      Sharky said: “I need to get off my chest, I’m an Arsenal fan, growing up you broke my heart so many times.”

      He then continued: “London is blue!”
      Sharky said: “Who owns London now?”
      Drogba replied: “Whaaat? We talking about now and not the last 10 years? How many Champions Leagues?”
      Sharky added: “That’s painful, that was class.”
      Fans loved the interaction, with one saying: “Bro chatting with the man that made me love Chelsea, gone clear bro.”

      by

      AMIR KHAN has revealed he is back training again with a big fight on his mind – but it will NOT be against Jake Paul. The British boxing icon retired in 2022 following his bitter loss to arch rival Kell Brook after decades of feuding.

      But the former world champion has teased a comeback ever since and is even now keeping fit in the gym.
      Talks in 2023 emerged for Khan to face old sparring partner and friend Manny Pacquiao in Saudi Arabia.
      And Khan admitted that is the fight that would bring him back to the ring one more time.
      He told SunSport in Riyadh: “I mean I am training a little bit here and there but the thing is the only man that can make that fight happen is Turki Alalshikh.

      “I think Turki Alalshikh can make that fight happen between me and Manny Pacquiao.
      “Yeah, that’s a fight that would definitely lift me up, for sure.”
      Pacquiao, 45, hung up his gloves a year before Khan in 2021 following defeat to Yordenis Ugas, 37.
      But after a failed presidential election in the Philippines, the eight-division champ opened the door to a boxing comeback.

      He even faced Korean martial arts YouTuber DK Yoo in December 2022 and recently announced he was out of retirement.
      Pacquiao and Khan were pictured together in October in Saudi before Tyson Fury’s win over Francis Ngannou, fuelling speculation of a bout.
      Khan also called out YouTuber-turned boxer Jake Paul, who is in 8-1 in the ring following just one loss to Tommy Fury, 24.
      But the 2004 Olympic silver medalist jibed that not even a huge payday could actually motivate him to fight Paul, 27.
      Khan, 37, said: “Jake Paul, I don’t think I can lift myself up for that fight. But, like a Manny Pacquiao fight you have to be on your A-game.”

      by

      A YOUTUBER has given an insight into what it’s like to play with some of the biggest legends in the game.Jamm, who is a member of the Shoot For Love YouTube channel was playing in the Match for Hope charity game in Qatar, which featured the likes of IShowSpeed.

      Jamm was playing for Team Aboflah, which was managed by Antonio Conte and included a bunch of influencers alongside the likes of Claude Makelele, Didier Drogba and Kaka.
      The opposing side, led by UK influencer Chunkz, was managed by Arsene Wenger and included the likes of Eden Hazard, Roberto Carlos and David Villa.
      Jamm did not start the match, but his bodycam footage showed fans exactly what it’s like to play with the legends after he came on.
      His video showed him being called across by Conte to be substituted onto the field, with the former Spurs manager appearing to be a bit unsure of what Jamm’s name was.

      Jamm was given the massive task of marking the recently retired Eden Hazard – who easily skipped around him to create a goal.
      Jamm’s footage also showed a smiling Didier Drogba walking past him to take a corner.
      Despite being skinned by Hazard, Jamm had a decent game while playing at left-back, putting in plenty of blocks.
      He even lost his glasses at one point when clearing the ball with a defensive header.

      The friendly was not without incident however, with American internet personality IShowSpeed launching into a horror tackle on Kaka.
      The YouTuber was shown a yellow for a tackle, but many argued it was a red – it certainly would have been if it was made in the Premier League.
      But for the purposes of the friendly, the ref opted to keep things level at 11v11 – and luckily Kaka was not injured. More

      A month before the grudge match, Paul signed a deal with the Professional Fighters League to debut in MMA.
      And Paul’s business partner teased Fury with an offer to rematch the American in boxing and then complete their trilogy in MMA.
      Now, PFL founder Donn Davis has exclusively confirmed to SunSport that a deal is in fact on the table and worth £15.7m.

      “The rumoured offers of $15-20m to Tommy – which is three times what he could earn for many other of his options – is accurate.
      “Is that the best option for Jake? I’ll leave that to Jake and Nakisa. They’re the best at picking opponents and managing that.
      “But that is accurate and that is a possibility.”

      Davis said: “If Nate and Jake want to get together in MMA, that remains on the table.
      “Jake is training now down in the Dominican, he’s four months into it.

      “I think Rooney has the physicality and the skills, he was a very strong and a tremendous athlete.

      He was fuming with the decision and suffered a further setback when his appeal to overturn the result was denied.
      KSI was probed on the fight by TV host Ross, who asked: “You were undefeated until you fought – and you will know him from Love Island – Tommy Fury in the ring and then you lost on points.”
      But the social media sensation replied: “Well, I technically don’t believe that I lost. I still think I won.”
