Arjen Robben was never known as a "bad boy" when he was in the Bundesliga.
But now he admitted to deliberately bypassing the police on the way to the stadium in Groningen.
Arjen Robben
likes to cycle to the stadium due to its proximity.
The former star of
FC Bayern Munich *
, however, has to be careful of police checks.
He played for FC Groningen for the first time in a month.
Munich -
Arjen Robben
is likely to
have a special status
in both
Munich
and
Groningen
, which gives him certain social advantages.
A football hero like Robben would surely get his after-work beer in the pub.
However, this does not apply to the police.
Before the law, the 36-year-old is like anyone else.
So he has to be careful when riding his bike to the stadium.
At least that's what he said after his
FC Groningen
0-0 win
against
FC Utrecht
last weekend.
Arjen Robben: Without lights on the bike to the stadium
“I have no lights on my bike.
Don't say out loud, otherwise the police will be waiting for me and I will have to pay a fine, ”revealed the
2013
Champions League *
winning goal scorer to the TV station
NOS
.
Robben only needs ten minutes to get home by bike.

In order to avoid the police, he took secret routes, then he would arrive "home faster".
Meanwhile, he parked his bike in the locker room.
Arjen Robben only has 44 minutes of action
The former
FC Bayern
superstar
* came
on in the 76th minute, but couldn't make the difference.
It was his first appearance since a groin injury he sustained during a game against
PSV Eindhoven
in September
.
In general, Robben only has two games and a total of 44 minutes.
The
2010 vice world champion may
have to get used to the stress of a professional footballer again.
After his time at
FCB *
, which ended in 2019, he finally took a year off and only returned to FC Groningen this year.
