YANN SOMMER went from dominating his box to donating his chocs – all 700 KILOS of them!
The Bayern Munich keeper trucked in the top-notch nibbles from his home country Switzerland after making a bemusing promise to team-mate Matthijs de Ligt – but then gave them to a foodbank instead.
Sommer vowed to reward the defender for a goal-line clearance when Bayern KO’d PSG in the Champions League last week.
In the end, Eric Maxim Choupo-Moting and Serge Gnabry both grabbed an After Eight on the night – second-half goals to clinch a 2-0 win.
That double bounty put Bayern into the last 16 by 3-0 on aggregate.
But Sommer was so impressed by De Ligt’s intervention that he vowed to deliver him a huge haul of chocolate bars from Swiss manufacturer Kägi.
The stopper, however, eventually opted to send the sweets to a charity in Munich called Münchner Tafel.
And apart from being a charitable idea, De Ligt seems to think it was wise for football reasons too.
Just before the 0.7 TONNE of bars was redirected, the Holland star told Sport1: “We’re in good form now so it’s better not to eat too much chocolate.
“This week was very important — with the win against Paris (and against Augsburg).

“We’re now in the Champions League quarter-final, in the DFB-Pokal and top of the Bundesliga, so it was important.”
And chasing that confection of honours is surely a sweet consolation for sticking to a strict eating regime.
