The man once dubbed the "Welsh Maradona" was spotted showcasing his football skills in Milford Haven on Thursday, September 17, more than a decade after first becoming an internet sensation.
Andrew Cassidy first earned the nickname in 2013 when videos of his remarkable keepy-uppy abilities attracted national attention, racking up millions of views online.
Cassidy previously told the Western Telegraph that he had lost count of how many consecutive keepy-uppies he could perform, adding:
"It must be hundreds. I can keep it up for hours if I really want to."
His extraordinary ball control and street football tricks drew comparisons to the late Argentine football legend Diego Maradona, earning him widespread recognition across Wales and beyond.
More than 13 years later, Cassidy is still honing his skills and entertaining audiences.
Videos of his latest tricks have found a new audience on TikTok, where he has amassed thousands of followers and views in less than three months.
