Wolfsburg unveils new signing... to play FIFA 16!

David Bytheway has signed a deal with the Bundesliga club to wear their colours when representing them in tournaments for the much-loved video game

EXTRA TIME
Despite never having played professional football, David Bytheway has earned a contract to join Bundesliga side Wolfsburg.

The Englishman will not be turning up to training with the likes of Julian Draxler, Max Kruse and Andre Schurrle. In fact, he will never kick a ball for the club - at least not in the literal sense.

The 22-year-old has not been signed up by Wolfsburg as a player, coach or as a director and will instead represent them in front of a games console to play FIFA 16!
