Sunderland’s Victor Anichebe has been in blistering form since returning to the Premier League.
After being let go by West Bromwich Albion in May, Anichebe hired personal trainer Nicky Holendar to whip him into Premier League shape.
The Nigerian is currently reaping the benefits of his labour, having formed an immediate bond with Jermain Defoe to guide the Black Cats to two wins on the bounce.
Holendar, who has worked with Hollywood stars such as Tom Cruise and Will Smith in the past, worked on Anichebe’s explosive endurance to make sure the hitman was able to last 90 minutes.
