A small outing which is very expensive. For violating the confinement rules by visiting a teammate in the midst of a health crisis, this weekend in Birmingham, Jack Grealish will be fined 150,000 pounds (169,000 euros) by his club Aston Villa. Not to mention the repairs on his luxurious Range Ranger. Because the 24-year-old midfielder's getaway would likely go unnoticed if it hadn't ended in a traffic accident. Leaving his friend's house early in the morning, Grealish lost control of his 4x4 and stamped two parked vehicles. Photos of him, hoodie on his head, shorts and tap dancing on the sidewalk, quickly circulated on social networks. And the pot of roses was discovered.
"I got a call from a friend asking me to visit him and I stupidly agreed to do so"
Jack grealishThe affair is all the more embarrassing for the English prodigy since the latter had invited his fans to respect confinement shortly before violating it. The tabloids are obviously having a great time and a “deeply embarrassed” Jack Grealish must have acted in contrition.
“I got a call from a friend asking me to visit him and I stupidly agreed to do so. I don't want anyone to make the same mistake as me, so obviously I invite everyone to stay home and follow the rules and guidelines. I hope everyone can accept my apologies and that we can move on, "commented the player announced this summer at Manchester United for a transfer that looks juicy (around £ 80m, or 90m €). Provided that the Red Devils are not cooled by this behavioral gap. "Very disappointed", his Aston Villa club announced that the 150,000 pounds fine, the equivalent of… two weeks of the player's salary, will be donated to charity. Brimingham police have opened an investigation to shed light on the circumstances of the accident.
