However, the already much-in-demand Spanish superstar decided to tease his fans to the fullest with his latest Tommy Hilfiger ad where he flaunts his sculpted physique.
The 29-year-old athlete who has struggled with injuries of late on the pitch, appears in the locker room for the ad where the 6'1" superstar strips to his bare minimum before heading for the shower.
The 30-sec duration of the ad is long enough to set temperatures soaring. Although, in the end his glare at the camera suggests, "Did I seriously do this?"
