LIVERPOOL’S FIRMINO FACES A SPARKING FINE
Roberto Firmino appears to have a parking fine heading his way after the Liverpool striker abandoned his £250,000 yellow Lamborghini in a disabled bay as he went out for dinner.
The striker was enjoying a meal at a new £1million restaurant formed by a partnership between the iconic Cavern Club and the Bem Brasil restaurant chain on Wednesday night.
Unwilling to find a legitimate parking space, Firmino opted to just leave his car in a disabled spot as he enjoyed his evening off.
In the UK it is an offence for anyone to park in a disabled space without displaying a valid Blue Badge and the offence carries a maximum fine of £1,000.
Firmino, who earns £180,000 a week at Anfield, looked to be unfazed by his choice of parking spot though as he walked into the restaurant while on the phone.
His car, the Lamborghini Urus, boasts a hair-raising top speed of 189.5 mph and can do 0-60 mph in just 2.93 seconds.
Firmino looked extremely casual as he opted to wear joggers, a hoodie and a leather jacket on top and was joined at the restaurant by wife Larissa Pereira.
Fellow Brazilian and Anfield stopper Alisson was also in attendance as Jurgen Klopp’s players enjoyed a night off after their hard-earned 0-0 draw against Bayern Munich in the Champions League.
Alisson’s wife Natalia Loewe was also in attendance as she walked into the restaurant just in front of her husband.
