Arsenal legend Robert Pires and his wife show off tattoos on Instagram as former France footballer gets new artwork on his arm

He has some way to go before he catches up to his wife's tattoo total but Robert Pires showed off his new artwork on Wednesday.

The Arsenal legend, who has taken on a role helping his former club in first-team training sessions this season, took to Instagram to show off his ink, believed to be a lion.

The 43-year-old's wife Jessica Lemarie-Pires has him beat, though, as she got tattoo No 20.
