Victor Lindelof of Manchester United has taken to his social media account to show off some brand-new eye-catching tattoos.
The design by the defender features an image of a child with what appears to be a homage to his home city of Vasteras in Sweden.
Lindelof’s latest addition was brought to life by fellow countryman and tattoo artist Andy Blanco, with other inks adorning the Sweden international.
Further details are poised to be announced via Instagram in due course, with the pair teasing a collaboration alongside the account ‘Footballers Fits.’
Victor Lindelof, 28, shared a video of the work being done on Instagram on Friday, 30th June, 2023 with caption: ”Ink Sessions drops today. Stay tuned for more.”
“If you look at my tattoos, obviously the first one I got, I have four birds, as I am one of four brothers, so that represents my brothers,” the United defender added.
“This one has a greek theme because all of our names are from Greece and are Greek. I have my mother here and then I have Athena here so it’s like a guardian and it also represents my mother looking over us and protecting us.
“We then just kept going with the Greek theme throughout the sleeve and I put a little bit of text here for family because family is very important to me”.
Victor Lindelof in the past has also tattooed a Sweden fan himself, Anders Thornvall back in 2019, after being requested to do so, following a competition win.
Lindelof and fellow international team-mate John Guidetti doing the honors with the binocular piece is now a constant piece of individual usage.
Speaking to local reporters, Victor Lindelof said: “That was a fun start to the sponsorship.”
“Even though I had B+ in art class, I was worried for Anders’ sake that the tattoo wouldn’t come out right, but it ended up being really good.”
