Fulham striker Dimitar Berbatov has shown it is not just the crowds he is drawing this season by revealing a touch of artistic flair.
The mercurial Bulgarian is clearly as effortlessly talented with a pencil as he is with his feet as he has produced a series of stunning caricatures.
Posted on his Facebook page are a set of sketches of famous celebrities which are just as eye-catching as his stunning volley against Stoke at Craven Cottage last weekend.
And just like his technique on the pitch, his portraits are anything but sketchy.
