Prince William poses with iconic Premier League manager who makes hilarious joke towards future king

The Prince of Wales inaugurated a newly built access route at the eighth-tier club's ground on Thursday, resolving long-standing transportation challenges faced by players and staff.

Mousehole had previously struggled with a deteriorating, narrow tracks riddled with potholes that made reaching their pitch difficult.

William learned of these problems and put together a solution by assembling a group of businesses to construct a smooth road to the facility.

His intervention has transformed accessibility for the squad.

The Prince of Wales, an Aston Villa supporter and former president of the FA, spent time with club members and representatives from the contributing businesses.

Taking to social media, William said: "Thank you to everyone in Mousehole for an incredible visit today and to all those who made the new road to this football club possible.

"You are a shining example of what can happen when people and businesses come together to create a team to help a community.

"Maintaining vital community facilities such as roads is an essential element of supporting local life, helping football clubs like Mousehole continue to thrive, connecting people and supporting the next generation into football at the grassroots."

Footage was shared of William shaking hands with Mr Warnock, who has managed over 1,600 games across the UK.

The former Sheffield United, Queens Park Rangers and Cardiff City manager shares his birth year with King Charles, who celebrates his 77th birthday today.

William engaged in football activities with youngsters at Rio's Maracana stadium during his recent visit to Brazil, where he also played alongside Brazilian legend Cafu.

He joined in with community leaders who run and participate in local football programmes across Rio de Janeiro.

William took a penalty with the youngsters, scoring into the bottom-right corner and cheered with the youngsters.

William's dedication to community football aligns with his well-documented enthusiasm for the sport.

Discussing his desire to share sporting memories with his children, he told TNT Sports in April: "I want George to experience a night out away from home in a big European competition."

His passion extends to superstitious rituals, as he revealed to The Sun: "If we're not doing very well, I start moving round the house quite quickly.

"I put the children in different positions hoping that's going to change our luck."
