Candy Price became involved in a confrontation with Drogba's partner Lalla Diakite after she allegedly refused to pay the cleaner £430 in wages.

Ms Price, 32, said she walked out of the striker's mansion the day before after becoming annoyed with the couple's demands.



When she went back for the money she claims Drogba's partner refused to pay.

She then sat outside the Ivory Coast player's £4 million house in Oxshott, Surrey, leading to Miss Diakite calling the police.

"All I wanted was the money owed to me," said Miss Price, of West Drayton, Middlesex.

"Drogba's partner kept telling me she would put it in the post, but I knew she didn't have my address.

"Two representatives from Chelsea arrived first and asked me to move. They then left and the police turned up.

"I explained the situation to the officers, who went inside. They came out 20 minutes later with a cheque for £430."

She added: "I'm angry that I had to go through all that hassle to get £430 from a man who earns more than £100,000 a week."

A spokesman for Drogba, who earns £115,000 a week at the London club, told The Sun: "They owed the cleaner no money. He is on international duty and his wife is pregnant on her own and doesn't speak much English.

"The cleaner sat outside shouting threats, banging on the gate, ringing the intercom, so Didier's wife was scared and called police. They advised her to give a cheque to go away, which she did."
