Donyell Malen’s virtual golf post catches Pierluigi Gollini’s eye

Published on: 13 November 2026

Roma forward Donyell Malen appears to have taken up virtual golf, following in the footsteps of Gareth Bale’s well-known passion for the real-life version of the sport.

The Netherlands international shared a photograph of himself attempting to guide a ball with a club, revealing his latest pastime.

Pierluigi Gollini was quick to respond in the comments. The goalkeeper jokingly expressed his surprise at Malen’s new interest, writing “No way!” while tagging the striker.

Malen moved to the Italian championship during the previous winter transfer window and immediately made a major impact with his prolific goalscoring.
