Liverpool FC striker Fernando Torres and Chelsea forward Didier Drogba will team up this weekend, with both men set to appear in Pepsi Max's new music video, as Pepsi begins its Fifa World Cup-related marketing.
Pepsi Max's charity song, 'Oh Africa', has been recorded by Akon, Keri Hilson and the Soweto Gospel Choir. Torres and Drogba, two of the biggest stars of English soccer's Premier League, will line up together in the accompanying music video.
Both men have been unarguable successes since their respective arrivals in English soccer. Torres marked his first season at Anfield, 2007/08, by becoming the first Liverpool player to pass the 20-Premier League goal mark in a season since Robbie Fowler. In December, Torres scored against Aston Villa to become the fastest player in Liverpool history to score a half century of league goals - also securing his side a vital three points in their race to finish in the top four and qualify for the Uefa Champions League.
Drogba, meanwhile, moved to Chelsea in 2004 for a fee of £24 million. He promptly helped fire the club to two Premier League titles under former coach Jose Mourinho, and his goals this season have been a vital part of the Stamford Bridge club's Premier League title challenge. Drogba has also won two FA Cups and two Carling Cups in his time at Chelsea.
The proceeds from the sale of Pepsi Max's single will be donated to a range of charities, including Akon's Konfidence Foundation, created to help underprivileged African children.
