Wenger shows off football skills

Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger showed a different side to himself when he was spotted playing beach football in Brazil this week.

Ahead of the Gunners' pre-season preparations, the 64-year-old has been giving his thoughts on the World Cup as a pundit for French TV.

During his stay in South America, the Arsenal boss took to the beach with former France internationals Bixente Lizarazu and Christian Karembeu.

Numerous fans gathered to watch Wenger, who recently signed a new contract at the Emirates, to show off his football skills on the sand.

Videos have been uploaded on social media of Wenger's efforts on the beach, one of which mirrored Robin van Persie's header against Spain for the Netherlands at the start of the World Cup.
