A new photo of the German midfielder has gone viral on social media. In the image from Bayern Munich's pre-season training, the 29-year-old can be seen posing with his hands on his hips, looking like he's lost some muscle and hair.

Under former Bayern boss Hansi Flick, Goretzka grew considerably bigger, causing some to say he'd undergone a 'Hulk'-like transformation. Some believe Flick's departure has sparked the reduction in size, with @cormacohallora2 writing: "Hansi flick left, he got him into that shape."
@Utdanoldt asked "Is this the same person", while @HKrtkovic was equally bemused, writing: "No way that's real."
"Bro lost all his aura," wrote @outXOftime, and @Bowmanator86 joked: "Had to play with Eric Dier."
