Fans love ‘humble king’ Josko Gvardiol as £78m Man City star arrives in tiny car with team-mates all in huge motors
FANS have dubbed Josko Gvardiol “humble” after he pulled up to Manchester City training in a Volkswagen.
The Croatian was on the scoresheet in the 1-1 draw with Newcastle on Saturday.
Ahead of the game, City fans waited outside the club’s training ground to get a glimpse of their favourite players.
A video that has gone viral on social media shows the stars driving luxury cars from a Rolls-Royce Phantom to a Lamborghini Aventador.
But £78million signing Gvardiol was instead behind the wheel of Volkswagen Golf R.
Despite the vehicle being worth between £40,000 and £50,000, it is still considerably less than the supercars his team-mates have the keys to.
Gvardiol, who also stopped to give fans an autograph and photo opportunity, has been praised by supporters, with one saying: “My humble king. My kind of car.”
Another added: “If I have to judge a person by their car – Josko Gvardiol elite human being.”
A third commented: “All of them in 6 figure cars except Gvardiol.”
Ruben Dias is seen in a £350,000 Lambo, while John Stones and Ederson drive Rolls-Royce Phantoms valued at the same price.
