Virat Kohli and Luis Figo
Indian Test captain Virat Kohli is unarguably one of the finest cricketers of our time, but little did we know that he is also an ardent football fan.
Recently, the star batsman caught up with one of the greatest footballers - former Portugal player Luis Figo - and got his 'fanboy moment'.
The batsman went on to post a selfie along with the Portugal star on his instagram account.
Luis Figo repayed the wonderful gesture with his reply on Twitter.
Portugal football legend was in Mumbai to launch the Premier Futsal tournament. Figo has also played for FC Barcelona and Real Madrid.
Meanwhile, Virat Kohli will now be gearing up to lead his team Royal Challengers Bangalore in the upcoming ninth edition of the Indian Premier League. He was also named player of the series for the concluded World Twenty20.
