REVEALED: Chelsea legend on why it did not work out for Fernando Torres at Stamford Bridge

Chelsea legend Didier Drogba has given his opinion on why it did not work out for Fernando Torres at the club.

Torres arrived at Stamford Bridge from Liverpool as one of the world’s hottest strikers in a then-world record £50m move in 2011.

But it just didn’t click for the Spaniard at the Blues, and he is currently at Atletico Madrid, where he made his name, on loan from AC Milan.

Drogba believes one reason why could be that Torres went from being a big fish in a small pond, to Chelsea, where the fish were just bigger.

Drogba quoted in the Evening Standard: ‘With all due respect to Liverpool, at that club, Steven Gerrard and Fernando Torres had been the kings. At Chelsea, there were 22 kings.’

Torres’ has struggled to recapture even close to the form he was in prior to arriving at Chelsea. He left the club in 2014 for Milan.
