Manchester United star, Jadon Sancho has named Chelsea legends, Frank Lampard and Didier Drogba as his idols in football.

Sancho said he grew up as a Chelsea fan and that Lampard and Drogba were his two main footballing idols.

The 21-year-old has been settling into life at Man United in recent weeks since joining the Red Devils from Dortmund in the summer.

He scored his second goal for Man United in their Premier League 1-1 draw with Chelsea last weekend.

Asked who his idol was as a youngster, Sancho told talkSPORT: "I would probably say, Frank Lampard. I was a Chelsea fan growing up, I can't lie!

"Didier Drogba and Frank Lampard were my favourite players at the time.

"I just love Frank Lampard and how he played his game - he was so direct and so composed on the ball. I like things like that."
