So, it turns out that Mohamed Salah is a Game of Thrones fan.
The Egyptian footballer has been in New York this week attending the Time 100 event, which took place on Tuesday in New York.
The Liverpool forward met a number of celebrities during the event, but it was meeting actress Emilia Clarke from the TV show Game of Thrones that drew him to social media.
Salah, 26, tweeted a picture of himself with Clarke, who plays Daenerys Targaryan, during the event, writing "The mother of dragons herself..." with a smiling emoji to complete the sentence.
Salah enjoyed his break in the United States, even tweeting out another image of him in front of two pizzas at a pizzeria in New York.
