Viral clip of Paul Gascoigne welcoming David Ginola to his first Everton training session

Paul Gascoigne and David Ginola are two of the most entertaining footballers the Premier League has ever seen.

Yes, they were both brilliant and had bags of ability.

But they also had something special. They were enigmatic and capable of producing moments of magic with their individualism and character.

Both played at Newcastle and Tottenham at different times during their career, becoming heroes at St James’ Park and White Hart Lane.

But, towards the end of their careers, they teamed up at Everton during the 2000/01 campaign.

Gascoigne and Ginola in the same side. It was the recipe for greatness.

Unfortunately, Ginola managed just five Premier League games at Goodison Park before retiring.

But that was still long enough for an iconic moment to occur in the very first training session with both players.

Ginola, known for his amazing hair and L’Oreal adverts, had joined Everton on a free transfer midway through the season and Gascoigne welcomed him to the club in the only way he knew how.

The Everton players alongside their new signing had begun their first training session but there was someone missing – Gascoigne.

However, he soon appeared sporting long luscious locks in the form of a wig to mimic Ginola.

The reporters – and the Everton players – found it rather hilarious.
