Bruno Guimaraes has taken to social media to show his appreciation after receiving a hilarious PR package very much 'on brand' for the Newcastle United midfielder.

Specially for the Brazilian, Kinder Bueno rebranded as 'Kinder Bruno' to mark months of public admiration.

Guimaraes' obsession with the chocolate brand first came to light in Newcastle United's Amazon documentary when his wife Ana revealed how much he loved Kinder eggs.

Then, hilariously, after United beat Aston Villa 3-1 in January, the 26-year-old swapped his match worn shirt for packets of the chocolate- a moment that went viral on social media thanks to the Brazilian's incredible reaction.

But I bet every Toon and Guimaraes fan would want to get their hands on the package he received this week.

The midfielder posted a photo of his parcel to his Instagram story, showing off all of the rebranded goodies, one in particular featuring his smiling face.

"I really enjoyed it," wrote Guimaraes. "Thank you very much [Kinder]... My favourite ever."

And Guimaraes has more than personalised chocolate to celebrate. Last week he and his wife Ana welcomed their second child.

The footballer shared the news to social media with the caption: “Pietro my love you don't know how much you were wanted by your family!!! Many happy returns of the day my son. Your family loves you more than anything 😍 🙏🏽 🥺”
