WATCH: Ronald Koeman falls in love with Shane Long as the Irishman sings at Southampton’s end-of-year party

Carl Kinsella

Our man-crush for Shane Long grows ever deeper.

Shane Long has ended the season well for Southampton, banging them in and putting in man of the match performances.

It’s known that football is far from Long’s only talent. As well as being able to take the net out of the goal behind Manuel Neuer, the Tipperary man is also an accomplished singer and guitarist.

He impressed the crowd at Southampton’s end-of-year celebrations and the video has made its way online, with Saints manager and Dutch football legend Ronald Koeman looking particularly delighted with his striker’s performance.

We hope to see shane busking on the streets of Paris between games this summer as Ireland battle it out in the Euros.
