Former Roma and Napoli defender Kostas Manolas has the courage of a lion on the field – but even he gets scared when an actual lion growls at him.
The Greece international spent much of his career in Serie A at Roma from 2014-19 and then moving on to Napoli until January 2022.
He returned home to Olympiacos and has now joined Sharjah FC, where he is again teammates with ex-Napoli midfielder Allan.
During the filming of a presentation clip for the UAE Pro League club, Manolas had a bit of a scare when the lion took a dislike to the defender.
I would give anything to see this happen to Ibra, the self proclaimed “lion”.
PS: Nobody could convince me to take a photoshoot with a lion, tiger, bear, ape, orca…
I’ll never forget what chimp Travis did to that poor woman.
DON’T LOOK IT UP!

And I’d like to see Roma players doing a photoshoot with the rabid fox that adorns their club badge 😩
That’s stupid,
putting a fox in the midst of wolves.
If I was unclear in the post above, I meant the same situation where lion’s roar would scare Ibra, making him trip over himself.
