The striker has made himself the darling of English football this season.

He has 15 goals in 16 games – including two that have fast made him a brand name within the Three Lions.

The dedicated follower of the world’s most exclusive haute couture labels insists his love of flash gear helps his head as well as his look.

He tells style magazine The Face: “As a footballer you’re so in a routine, and you do the same things every day.

“It’s that bit of freedom. If you want to wear a suit for no reason, why not?”

The Yorkshireman comes up against Leeds United tonight revealing that he first fell in love with glad rags when he played for the White’s rivals Sheffield United.

As a 16 year old he bought a Ralph Lauren puffer jacket with his first pay cheque at Bramall Lane.

He says: “I gave my mum a portion of the money and went and spent the rest on this coat.

His team mates have a laugh over his togs, but he is happy to be on the cat walk.

“It’s like a backhanded compliment.”
