Didier Drogba was among a host of sports stars who visited Canary Wharf for the 13th annual BGC Partners Charity Day this week.
The former Chelsea striker was representing the Didier Drogba Foundation at the event, which takes place in conjunction with the Cantor Fitzgerald Relief Fund on September 11 every year.
Cantor Fitzgerald lost 658 of their 960 workers in a terrorist attack on New York's World Trade Center 16 years ago.
