Argentina footballer Lionel Messi has formed an Oasis tribute band.
Messi plays guitarist Noel Gallagher in the group, who are set to embark on a secret European tour.
He has apparently recruited a Barcelona team mate to play Liam Gallagher, but has refused to reveal their identity.
"Our disguise is based on how Oasis looked in the mid-90s,” he told The Sun. “We have our wigs, clothes and glasses sorted.
"I also spent a lot of time getting the mannerisms right."
Messi has become an Oasis convert ever since Argentina team mate Carlos Tevez introduced him to the band before this summer’s World Cup.
He recently described the Manchester group’s music as the best “I have ever heard”.
