CANADIAN superstar singer Justin Bieber can't get enough of Altrincham.
Bieber, who is a massive ice hockey fan, turned up to a training session of Manchester Storm at weekend at the Altrincham Ice Rink(Storm Shelter).
He was in Trafford to attend the Ariana Grande concert, which was organised for the victims of the Manchester Arena bombing at Old Trafford Cricket and was headlining along with Katy Perry, The Black Eyed Peas, Coldplay, Robbie Williams Take That, Liam Gallagher, Miley Cyrus, which has raised at least £2.7m.
It has almost become custom and practice that if Bieber is in town playing a gig he will turn up to watch the Storm.
A spokesman for the Manchester Storm joked online: "Well, we think someone enjoyed his time so much with the Manchester Storm the first and second time around, he decided to come pay a visit a THIRD time!
"Justin Bieber was back in town for last night’s remarkable concert #ForManchester, in memory of all those who were tragically killed and injured in the recent awful attack at the Manchester Arena.
"Bieber as many of his fans know is a HUGE ice hockey fan, and brings his skates and sticks with him wherever he goes, as we found out back in November when he first paid a visit to the Storm Shelter to skate with the full squad & a couple of invited guests.
"He enjoyed himself so much with the team, that he then invited the whole squad to London for one of his sold out gigs at the O2 Arena, but not before they all had to go skate again with him in Milton Keynes en route!
"On this occasion, with the vast majority of the Manchester Storm squad back in the US and Canada, it was left to the few remaining players that are still here in Manchester, plus a few rec players to take to the ice with the man himself, Mr Bieber!
"What an experience yet again for the few remaining Storm players, but also the recreational players and kids in attendance. "We think it’s fair to say Mr Bieber feels right at home here at the Storm Shelter!"
