Arsenal striker Alexandre Lacazette entertained fans by spreading out in the stands under an umbrella as he sheltered from the heat on a sweltering evening at Southampton.
The French forward watched his side take the lead in the Premier League while reclining over several seats under a red umbrella in scorching temperatures.
Fans on social media laughed at the sight of Lacazette, who is affectionately known as 'king' to some supporters, sunbathing during the first half.
In a reference to Kate Winslet's famous line while reclining to have her portrait taken in the film Titanic, one wit accompanied a photo of Lacazette with the caption: 'Draw me like those French girls'.
Another Arsenal fan account laughed: 'Alexandre Lacazette looking very relaxed in the stands with the other Arsenal substitutes.'
Lacazette's fellow stars in reserve, including defender Sead Kolasinac and playmaker Mesut Ozil, were not holding umbrellas in the picture shared by supporters.
'Lacazette isn't relinquishing his King of The Swagometer crown without a fight,' said one viewer, while another added: 'This is a new kind of leg day.'
Players have been using the stands of empty stadiums as makeshift benches and observing social distancing by sitting seats apart following the return of the Premier League during the pandemic.
One of Lacazette's young pretenders in the Arsenal squad, Eddie Nketiah, gave the Gunners a 20th-minute lead at St Mary's stadium.
29-year-old Lacazette has scored 34 goals in 89 appearances since becoming the club's then-record signing when he joined from Lyon for £46.5 million in 2017.
