Award-winning Ghanaian artist, King Promise has revealed admiration for former Chelsea and France defender Marcel Desailly, describing him as an amazing personality.
Despite his Ghanaian roots, Dessailly opted to represent the Les Blues of France and went ahead to win the FIFA World Cup back in 1998.
While at the Stamford Bridge creating content for the launch of his upcoming song Bad Habits featuring Davido, which is set to be released on Friday 21 November, King Promise disclosed his affection for the legendary defender.
Revealing his encounter with former or current Chelsea players, King Promise said, “Yeah. One of my very good mates is Callum Hudson-Odoi, he’s my brother. Also Trevoh Chalobah, he’s my guy. Before we had a link, he signed a jersey for me, and we’ve stayed in touch”
“Hakim Ziyech is one of my very good friends as well, I was with him in Amsterdam in the summer. Kurt Zouma also signed a jersey for me and I met John Terry in Qatar and we had a nice conversation”
“But Marcel Desailly, that’s my guy. I just spoke to him and when I told him I was at Stamford Bridge he was super excited for me. I love Marcel, he has Ghanaian roots as well so we spend a lot of time together back home when he can”
“He’s a legend, but on a personal note, as a human being, he’s amazing. He’s always the one who’s having fun, has a good vibe, has a smile, is ready to dance. And also just share advice, because obviously he’s seen and done it all on the world stage”
“So, for a young guy like me, also coming up and trying to represent my people to the world, it’s always good to have people who have also achieved high heights to ease you on the right path. He’s someone I look up to and someone I can have conversations with. He’s a great guy” he concluded.
