Arsenal’s Lukas Podolski in moving tribute to Formula One legend Michael Schumacher

Arsenal’s German international Lukas Podolski took to Twitter to show off his new boots earlier, which give a message of support for the Formula One legend Michael Schumacher.

He posted this picture of the boots he intends to wear against Manchester United this Wednesday night at the Emirates on his social media profiles, and stitched into the footwear are the words “Kämpfe Michael #getwellsoon”, a slogan of support for Schumacher.

 

Schumacher was involved in a horrific skiing accident on Dec 29th which has led to him being placed in a medically induced coma.

It’s a very noble gesture from the German international, but seeing as he might be on the bench on the night, the chances of him getting to show off his footwear and their touching message might be slightly limited.
