Daniel Drinkwater Began Playing Football At The Tender Age Of Four An Inspiration To Nigerian Youths
Danny Drinkwater spent his childhood at Greater Manchester. He was a United
fan as a little kid. He began playing football at the tender age of 4.
His growth became obvious and that led to Manchester United academy
acquiring him. Then he was still a schoolboy.
Daniel Noel Drinkwater was born on the 5th day of March 1990. He was born in
Manchester, the United Kingdom by parents Mr and Mrs Drinkwater.
Thou, He never made a first-team appearance for United under Alex Ferguson.
He was an unused substitute for the final Premier League game at Hull before the
2009 Champions League final defeat to Barcelona.
He took Loan spells at Huddersfield, Watford, Cardiff and Barnsley followed
before he signed for Leicester in January 2012.
The rest, as they say, is history.
The name Drinkwater comes from the word ‘drink’ and ‘water’.
It was a nickname
given to people who are unable to afford beer in 1066 A.D. The surname was first
found in Cheshire.
Unsurprisingly, social media have been going crazy since his surname became
popular during his time at Leicester.
During drinks break in Leicester’s home game
against Tottenham, Drinkwater was pictured drinking water.
This saw an outrage
on social media.
Drinkwater has become the fans’ favourite at Chelsea.
The song that echoes
around Stamford Bridge goes like this:
“So here’s to you Danny Drinkwater, Chelsea loves you more than you will know,
oh Woah oh oh”.
Drinkwater said he is relishing the chance at Stamford Bridge after passing a
medical on 31st August 2017 transfer deadline day.
He added: ‘I’m delighted to be a Chelsea player and can’t wait to get started. It
has been a long journey to get here but I am very happy and am looking forward to helping the club win more trophies.’
Chelsea signed him because he is typically combative English midfielder with a
cultured passing technique. He was also needed to strengthens their midfield
options.
A good combination with Bakayoko.
