Parody press conference brand reveal from @monzo

The creator stages a parody football press conference where manager Frank Lampard announces a new signing. He describes the player's qualities—which are actually the attributes of the sponsor, Monzo—and reveals the name 'Monzinho.' After a reporter questions the name, Lampard avoids the question and leaves, revealing a giant Monzo card mascot was the new signing all along.
