FERNANDO TORRES is putting his incredible new muscles to use by taking up boxing.
The former Liverpool and Chelsea striker hung up his boots nearly two years ago after a sensational career that saw him win a host of major trophies.
And then at the beginning of this year the Spaniard revealed he had undergone an incredible body transformation since packing in football.
In an Instagram post announcing a link-up between Atletico Madrid and a Southeast Asian casino website, he showed off his new ripped new look.
Torres posed in a tight-fitting blue shirt, wowing fans who couldn’t fail to notice his recent exploits in the gym.
And now he has released some new pictures putting his new muscles to use with some boxing training.
Torres reportedly owns a number of gyms in the Spanish capital, where he played some of his final years in football with Atletico Madrid.
Among those who have used them in the past include former team-mate Diego Costa.
Torres retired with a record of 262 goals in 767 club appearances.
He also netted 38 times in 106 games for Spain, with whom he won the World Cup and European Championships twice.

He will be fondly remembered in England for his sensational time at Anfield where he scored 81 times in 142 games.
But his subsequent £50million transfer to Chelsea in 2011 did not work out as the Blues had hoped as Torres managed more than 11 goals in just one of his three and a half seasons playing at Stamford Bridge.
He then went on loan to AC Milan before returning to Atletico and then finishing his career with Japanese side Sagan Tosu.
