SPOTTED: Arsene Wenger plays beach footy in Brazil... and does his best Bond impression!
ARSENE WENGER has proved he is a man of many talents after enjoying a spot of beach football at the World Cup.
The Arsenal manager is in Brazil working as a pundit for French TV.
But that has not stopped Wenger showing off his skills after he held his own in a game of footvolley at Ipanema beach, Rio de Janeiro.
The 64-year-old held his own with 1998 World Cup winners Bixente Lizarazu, Christian Karembeu and Bernanrd Diomede as well as former Gunners star Sylvain Wiltord and Olivier Dacourt.
Wenger was not out of place among the illustrious group, offering a cheeky flick with the outside of his foot during the knock about.
He then took pictures with fans on the beach before heading in for a dip.
Wearing a traditional brazilian male bathing suit, a sunga, Wenger cooled off in the sea.
His choice of attire drew comparisons on Twitter with James Bond star Daniel Craig, who famously donned short trunks in Casino Royale.
The name's Wenger, Arsene Wenger. Well played boss!
