Vladimir Putin’s press secretary looks uncannily like David Moyes and it’s freaking us out

He looks more like David Moyes than David Moyes. It's uncanny.

It’s actually him.

Have you been wondering why we’ve not seen much of David Moyes recently? Has it been playing on your mind as to what Moyesy is up to since leaving Sunderland last month? No, us neither. But now we know it has blown our tiny little minds.

The greatest trick the devil ever pulled was convincing the world he didn’t exist.

And the greatest trick David Moyes ever pulled was convincing the world he was a shit football manager and not an undercover Kremlin operative.

Thanks to an extremely funny and very handsome man on Twitter, we now know that Moyes is in fact the alias of Vladimir Putin’s press secretary Dmitry Pestov.

Don’t believe us? Take a look at the images below and tell us it’s not the former Everton and Manchester United manager in a bad wig and dodgy stick-on moustache…

It’s uncanny…

One can only assume that he aspires for Russia to be more like Manchester City.
