Serge Gnabry nails Wayne Rooney impression with wondergoal

Incredible

Pick that one out.

Serge Gnabry never really got enough opportunities to showcase his talent in the Premier League, having been unsuccessfully loaned out to West Brom during his last season in England only to make the solitary league appearance for Tony Pulis’ side.

But since moving back to his native Germany, first playing for Werder Bremen for whom he impressed enough to earn himself a move to Bayern Munich after scoring 11 goals in 27 league games, he’s shown glimpses of the player who once convinced Arsene Wenger of his abilities.

Currently on loan at Hoffenheim, Gnabry showed the world why Bayern wanted to sign the 22-year-old with a peach of a goal on Saturday.

Picking up the ball not far into RB Leipzig’s half, the winger spotted the goalkeeper off his line and audaciously unleashed a perfectly weighted shot from just beyond the centre circle.

It’s arguable that this chip beats Wayne Rooney’s driven shot from a similar distance in midweek.
