Cole Palmer, Estêvão, and Didier Drogba feature in Nike World Cup ad
Summary

Cole Palmer, Estêvão, and Didier Drogba appear in Nike's latest World Cup advertisement, which was released ahead of the tournament starting next week. Despite not participating in the event—Palmer was not selected, and Estêvão is injured—the trio showcases their star power in the ad, which runs for six minutes. The ad humorously includes moments like Channing Tatum dressed as Erling Haaland and features Palmer alongside Central Cee. Drogba makes a cameo as a pundit, although he is not officially part of any broadcast team.
