Selling out

Fernando Torres refuses to stop making terrible adverts

Liverpool star advoactes well trained dogs

Obviously bored with Liverpool’s dull-as-dishwater style of play, Fernando Torres has turned to other avenues for (well paid) kicks. A few weeks ago, we saw him star in an advert for a Spanish salon, and now we see him promoting some kind of dog school.

Hang on a second – would one of Europe’s top strikers be a part of something with such shoddy production values? Would he really let a small provincial hairdresser mess with his wonderfully feathered locks? This all stinks of a Nike viral video campaign (look at all the clothes they’re wearing in the clip above), and we’ve fallen for it. Curses!

Spoiler bonus: We recognise that Stevie G-loving German Shepherd from somewhere. Could he be Hank, the stunt mutt who did Nando like a kipper?
