Football fans have been delighted as Hollywood star Will Ferrell keeps popping at matches over the UK.
The comedy legend, 55, posed for photos with Mo Salah and Jack Grealish, enjoyed a pint with Wrexham AFC fans and joined Gary Neville on Sky Sports as he watched four matches in six days with friends.
The Elf star's first match was Wrexham's game against Wealdstone in the National League on Saturday, and Will enjoyed a pre-match pint with fans at a local pub.
Spotted having a drink in The Turf, a beloved pub next to the Racecourse Ground, fans caught a glimpse of the American star, who's also a co-owner of Los Angeles FC (LAFC) back in the United States.

"It's my first time here - where are we again? Wrexham! I'm really excited for this match and I'll be honest with you, I'm a little nervous."
This is by no means Wrexham's first brush with Hollywood, as the football club is owned by Free Guy star Ryan Reynolds and It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia actor Rob McElhenney.

When asked about his plans in the UK, Will, who met Roy before at Soccer Aid, said his trip was planned two years ago, but pushed back because of Covid.
"It's a collection of old friends and we're just seeing four matches in six days and we're just having a great time," he added.
