The Premier League has released a clip featuring a number of the division’s stars pronouncing their names as they should be in their native languages.
As arguably the biggest league in world club football, the Premier League attracts players from across the world, seeking to make it at one of the biggest clubs in the game.
As such, there are some names in the division that might be a bit harder for the English-speaking tongue to wrap itself around.
Therefore the Premier League has published a new video with the likes of Bruno Fernandes, Dominik Szoboszlai and Kevin De Bruyne reading out their names with subtitles, so you might hear how they should be properly pronounced.
The video – which lasts almost a minute and a half – features some 35 players and two managers from across the league.
