Granit Xhaka, Mohamed Elneny, Alex Iwobi, Ainsley Maitland-Niles, Reiss Nelson and Joe Willock got to meet some of Australia’s wildlife on Wednesday afternoon, including Koalas, wallabies and emus.
The lads all got a chance to take pictures with the animals and even feed them. Although Elneny certainly looked as if he was keeping his distance from that wallaby.
