Atalanta midfielder Matteo Pessina made the biggest impact returning to pre-season training of any footballer as he turned up back from holiday with a signed PornHub bag.

It doesn't seem that long ago that the football season was over but already players are returning from their holiday to start pre-season training for the 2019/20 season.

Paul Pogba's return from holiday to make it in time for Manchester United's tour to Australia grabbed a lot of attention but the Frenchman has been well and truly outdone.

That's because Matteo Pessina turned up to Atalanta's first session of pre-season with a bag from PornHub, nah we aren't sure what it is either, signed by some of the site's stars like Mia Khalifa.

Interesting bag choice from Matteo Pessina :eyes: https://t.co/XYhlJ0hPqr - James Horncastle (@JamesHorncastle) July 11, 2019

We've seen a lot of different tote bag designs but this one is a first.



Matteo Pessina turns up to training rocking a PornHub bag that has apparently been signed by pornstars.

It's certainly not the part of their lifestyle that most footballers like to advertise but seriously, once they're done with a few hours of training a day and they get home what else are they supposed to do with their time...having a bag collection is a great idea.

The 22-year-old, who used to be at AC Milan but never made an appearance for the Rossoneri, signed for Atalanta in 2017 but went on loan to Spezia in his first season.

Last season the midfielder made 12 appearances for Gian Piero Gasperini's team as they finished in third place in Serie A and earned themselves a place in next season's Champions League.

Turning up to pre-season training with a PornHub bag is certainly the kind of statement that we like to see before the season's started.
