Kobbie Mainoo has revealed he will not be following some of his England team-mates by trying pickle juice to treat cramp at Euro 2024. In the closing stages of England’s 1-0 win against Serbia on Sunday night, Kieran Trippier was seen consuming a mystery drink on the sidelines after receiving treatment from the medical staff. In the aftermath of the incident, Trippier was falsely accused of doping by some fans, but it has since emerged that he was actually given one sachet of pickle juice and another containing a high-carb drink known as ‘fuel bomb’. While some fans were fascinated with his size and stature – with one christening him as looking ‘like an actor in those Viking movies’ – other comments were more unflattering.
