West Bromwich Albion striker Victor Anichebe has taken to Twitter to slam Game of Thrones actors Kit Harrington and Rose Leslie after the Nigerian’s request for a photograph was refused.
Big Vic—a self-confessed fan of Game of Thrones—took to social media to recount an incident in which he met the two stars in a hotel, before asking them for a picture.
A reasonable request…you might imagine, but one that was seemingly frowned about by the actors, leading to a furious response from the Nigerian forward.
1/3 Bumped into Kit Harrington & Rose Leslie at my hotel and being a big #GOT fan asked nicely for a pic…

2/3 Shame that they refused & felt to act the way they did, I would never decline someone a picture as without fans we’re nothing…

While Anichebe boasts immense physical qualities and extensive experience of top-flight football, it remains to be seen whether he can truly succeed in the Premier League. He appears to have overcome his injury concerns, he appears not to appeal to Baggies boss Tony Pulis.
