BENJAMIN MENDY reinforced his status as the king of banter at Manchester City by trolling Kevin De Bruyne.
The Belgian playmaker posted a picture of himself throwing his young child like a basketball across a swimming pool.
The snap, captioned "throwing my kid like a basketball because we miss the NBA season" drew the attention of left-back Mendy.
He retweeted the image, hilariously joking: "Poor Zinchenko."
City pair De Bruyne and Oleksandr Zinchenko have become subject to a club joke that they are mirror images of each other.
The doppelgangers even posed with the FA Cup together to prove just how similar they really are.
Mendy has a reputation on social media for showing off his playful side, and plenty of fans got it on the gag.
