Roger Federer meets ex-Argentina striker Gabriel Batistuta for kickabout

Federer has kickabout with Batistuta

Former world number one Roger Federer swapped his tennis skills for football once again after meeting former Argentina striker Gabriel Batistuta.

The 31-year-old tried to show off his football tricks earlier this week when he emerged on court for an exhibition match in a Brazil kit after he met legend Pele at his home in South America.

This time, the Wimbledon champion enjoyed a brief kickabout with Batistuta ahead of an exhibition tennis game against Juan Martin del Potro in the city of Tigre.

Federer also swapped shirts with the 43-year-old.
