ERBIL, Kurdistan Region (Kurdistan24) – Aside from training and playing matches, footballers often have to deal with the press and sometimes crazed fans who just want an autograph.

Being a professional footballer is unquestionably demanding.

But what if players had clones to carry this burden for them?

Kurdistan24 has gathered several photos of footballer lookalikes from the Kurdistan Region.

Can you tell which one is the lookalike and which one is the footballer?

Still, the Kurds vote and are kingmakers in Turkey

"The results of the election show that the AKP can’t beat the Kurdish movement, despite all the pressure they’ve been directing at it, and true democracy in Turkey is not possible without Kurds."
