Former Arsenal and Manchester United striker Robin van Persie got into the spirit at the Premier League Darts on Thursday, cheering on Michael van Gerwen with a traffic cone hat on his head.
Van Gerwen beat world champion Rob Cross and Michael Smith to take the title for a fourth time and third in a row.
And the Dutchman was cheered on by a familiar face at London’s O2 Arena, as Netherlands international footballer Van Persie – also sporting a Van Gerwen shirt and a pair of fetching yellow sunglasses – offered his support.
The 34-year-old has been in fine form since returning to Feyenoord in January, scoring five goals in 12 Eredivisie appearances and helping the club to KNVB Cup glory.
A man who knows a thing or two about winning the Premier League… it’s only @Persie_Official in the house!
Nice hat, Robin! pic.twitter.com/rOpNy97XHr
