Ben Foster revealed the holiday destination that is always 'heaving with footballers'.
Professional footballers are currently enjoying downtime away from the sport unless they play for a club that is participating at the Club World Cup or been selected for the European Under-21 Championship.
They often jet away to exotic islands for luxury holidays before returning to their club for pre-season.
According to Foster, who played for Manchester United and Wrexham during his career, Mykonos is the place to be as it's 'heaving with footballers'.

When asked where autograph hunters should target, Foster replied: "Mykonos for sure, Mykonos, it is the new big one."
He said: "A lot of people also go to Portugal to be fair, a lot go and get a villa and get somewhere along the golf courses. Mykonos is huge for it though, it is heaving with footballers.
"If you are an autograph hunter, just go to Mykonos at about 8:30pm on any night and just stand in the middle."

Foster himself enjoyed a holiday in Mykonos and recalled how he dodged bumping into other footballers.
"How easy is it to spot a footballer while on holiday, though? We went to Mykonos a couple of years ago and you know there’s just hundreds of footballers there," he added.
"You’re walking down these lovely painted cobble streets and all I am doing is looking over the top of everybody because I am tall, and I am thinking ‘oh god he’s a footballer, kids we’re going this way’. And I am dragging them down dodgy alleys just to divert around them."

Mykonos has been a popular destination for footballers, with the likes of Harry Maguire, Jack Grealish and Luke Shaw spending time in the Greek island.
It boasts stunning beaches, restaurants and nightclubs played by world-renowned international DJs.
Just like Ibiza, Mykonos has its own party beaches - Paradise, Super Paradise and Paraga.
Temperatures in the summer average 29 degrees during the day so it's the perfect spot to get a good tan.
