Iceland may have turned heads after dumping England out of Euro 2016, but Birkir Bjarnason has attracted interest for different reasons altogether.
The 28-year-old midfielder, nicknamed Thor in his homeland, has been one of the key figures in Iceland’s midfield this summer.
But his good looks have not gone unnoticed with British online fashion store ASOS, who have offered the FC Basel star a modelling gig.

Bjarnason has taken ASOS’ proposal in good humour on Twitter with the reply: “Hahah sign me up.”
@ASOS hahah sign me up
