Amadou Onana has gone viral on social media for an interview in which he pulled off a perfect English accent when correcting a reporter for calling him "Andre".
In the post-match interview following Belgium's shock 1-0 defeat to Slovakia, Onana answered questions in French to reporters before an English reporter incorrectly called him Andre.
Onana responded in a perfect English accent: "Andre is not even my name, mate. Do you know what I mean?”
Instantly, Onana then returned to his initial interview with an incredibly calm temperament.
One fan stated on X: "That accent is so perfect that UEFA should forget the Belgian caps and let him play for England.”
Another said: "Can we check if Onana has a British passport?"
