TOMAS SOUCEK has been spotted outside of the London Stadium walking BAREFOOT.
The tireless midfielder has been in action for West Ham during the club's pre-season preparations, but was seen walking around barefoot ahead of their Prem opener against Man City next week.
Despite the randomness of this, fans saw the funny side and showed their support for him.
One user said: "Our potato salad king."
Another wrote: "He's a legend," while a third took a more humorous approach and added: "He gave away his boots!"
Soucek scored during his side's 1-1 draw with Luton Town last Saturday, making it his second goal in as many games.

The Czech Republic star has been a mainstay in the West Ham midfield since joining the club in 2020, turning an initial January loan from Slavia Prague into a permanent transfer in July of that year.
The 27-year-old has since formed a formidable partnership alongside England ace Declan Rice.
The pair have created a rock solid foundation from which West Ham can engineer a strong defence and springboard attacks.
This has helped the club climb from a relegation scrap into the top seven of the Premier League in the last two seasons.

West Ham even made significant progress in the Europa League last season before being knocked out by eventual winners Eintracht Frankfurt at the semi-final stage.
Soucek has played 102 times for The Hammers so far, scoring 18 goals and getting two assists.
However, recent reports indicate he is currently struggling to agree to a new deal with the club, which has put Newcastle, Aston Villa and Everton on high alert.
Meanwhile, the club have confirmed the £30million transfer of striker Gianluca Scamacca.
