Manchester City striker Alvaro Negredo says his personality is the complete opposite to his on-field nickname, 'The Beast'.
Negredo, though, loves the moniker.
"I'm just the opposite of a beast," he told the Daily Mail. "I'm totally different. I'm very affectionate as a person and I like to spend time chilling out with my family.
"If anything, my daughter has maybe taken this image of the beast to heart because she's the wild one! It came about when I was at Almeria. It was more of dressing-room thing really. None of the fans knew me as that, but it became more public when I got here.
"At first, I was called The Shark because I had a bit of a Mohican haircut and I used to celebrate goals by clasping my hands above my head."
