He may be in the middle of a multi-million pound tug-of-war over where he will be next season.

Spanish vixen Nereida is also hobbling after slipping on her high heels but is no doubt making the Premiere League footballer her priority.

And this is not surprising considering the beauty told a friend she is keen to tie the knot.
