After a football career spanning 20 years, including clubs like Inter, Lazio & Juventus, Christian Vieri needs little introduction.

Having scored 23 goals in 49 matches for Italy, he is considered one of Italy’s greatest strikers, and is the one-time world player of the year. Perhaps this is why Blackburn were rumoured to be signing the 36 year old.

“He’s got the ability to finish out of nowhere,” said Blackburn’s left-back Stephen Warnock. Or maybe it was “finish up nowhere.” Who can tell?

Anyway, the real reason Vieri won’t be signing for the Rovers is here for you to visually realise.

One time world player of the beer.
