Former Barcelona and Cameroon forward, Samuel Eto’o, has said that African legends,El Hadji Diouf and Didier Drogba , are not on his level.
Eto’o had an outstanding career, representing Cameroon from 1997 until 2004, featuring in four World Cups.
The 39-year-old also won multiple trophies during his career, including two Africa Cup of Nations titles, four UEFA Champions League titles, and two FIFA Club World Cup titles.
Speaking about comparisons between the former Barcelona man, El Hadji Diouf, and Didier Drogba, Eto’o believes he’s the best out of them.
“Even if my brother Diouf the last time, with an extra glass, got a little lost, there is no debate [about who is the best]”, the former Cameroon international said, according to Goal.
“None of them [Diouf or Drogba] can come and say that they were at my level or better.
“And it’s not the fact that I say it, it’s a fact, it’s something that is there. I wanted to be number one and I have been throughout my career,” he added.
Eto’o’s most fruitful spell came during his time with Barcelona, where the Cameroonian forward scored 130 goals and provided 40 assists in 199 games for La Blaugrana.
His contributions helped the Spanish giants win a historic treble in 2009, before leaving for Inter Milan to win another treble a year later.
