Sheffield United star Lys Mousset is due to appear in court on a two-count charge after his N159 million (£300,000M Lamborghini ran into multiple parked cars earlier this year.

The 25-year-old's exotic ride was a write-off after crashing into other vehicles parked in Sheffield just after midnight on January 4.

He has now been accused of driving without due care and attention, as well as failing to stop after a road traffic collision.

"Lys Mousset has been charged with driving without due care and attention and failing to stop after a road traffic collision. He will appear before the court in June.
"A second man, who was arrested in connection with the crash, has been issued with a penalty notice for wasting police time."

Mousset has played seven Premier League games this campaign and has failed to score or assist any goal so far. He has equally missed as many as 12 pictures owing to a series of injuries.

The attacker joined the Blades from Bournemouth in a deal valued at around £10million in the summer of 2019.

He is eligible for both France and Senegal and has been capped at the U21 level by the French national team.

Legit.ng earlier reported that Premier League legend Emmanuel Adebayor has taken to social media to flaunt his expensive car collection.

The 36-year-old Togolese is without a club having left Paraguayan outfit, Olimpia, in July 2020 despite having a deal with them until December last year.

However, the club-less striker has been showing off his wealth in terms of his fleet in his home country.
