Chris Smalling trolls Romelu Lukaku as he gets a selfie with Stormzy at Manchester United charity bash
A newspaper mistook the grime superstar for £75million Red Devil and team-mate Smalling would not let him forget it
CHRIS SMALLING has trolled team-mate Romelu Lukaku - by "mistaking" him for grime superstar Stormzy.
And it wouldn't be the first time the £75million Belgium has suffered an identity crisis.
An Irish newspaper used a picture of the Croydon-born hip-hop star instead of the former Everton man this summer, prompting Stormzy to blast: "I don't find none of this funny."
Lukaku's team-mate Smalling rubbed it in with his selfie alongside Stormzy at a gala dinner last night.
Smalling, who is alongside wife Sam in the picture, wrote: "Fantastic night at Old Trafford raising money for @unicef and great hanging out with @rlukaku9."
It could be Lukaku who gets the last laugh though.

Jack Wilshere, Daniel Sturridge, Danny Welbeck and Theo Walcott also look likely to spend next summer on the beach rather than in Russia.
Ruben Loftus-Cheek and Harry Winks, both 21, plus keeper Jordan Pickford, 23, have all forced their way into Southgate’s likely squad for Russia.
While the impressive showings of Joe Gomez, 20, and Harry Maguire, 24, mean Smalling is the biggest loser from the international break.
The Manchester United defender was surprisingly axed from the latest England squad, with Southgate damningly insisting he wanted defenders who can play out from the back.
