Yesterday, a fan account posted a sighting of the soon-to-be infamous Joelinton flag to Twitter. But it’s Joelinton like you’ve never seen him before; it’s Joelinton with his face superimposed onto King Charles’ body with the words: ‘God Save the King’ and ‘His Majesty Joelinton’.
As you can imagine fan reaction to the flag has been incredible with one fan commenting: ‘It’s so beautiful. Joelinton debuts at #Glastonbury23’ and another writing: ‘Long live Big Joe!’
