Topic: Jermaine Pennant ‘forgot he owned Porsche’

Footballers are already stereotyped as being a bit underwhelming in the brains department and this really isn’t going to help their cause one little bit.


As if leaving the car abandoned for nearly half a year wasn’t bad enough, Spanish paper Marca reports that when the player’s former club, Real Zaragoza, phoned him to let him know, Pennant still had no recollection that the vehicle was his.


Officials from the Spanish club broke into the car, which has a P33NNT number plate, and discovered that the keys were on the seat.


Pennant’s previous clubs include Arsenal, Leeds United and Liverpool, who he signed for in 2006. In 2009 he left the Merseysiders on a free transfer to the La Liga side, but made little impact.


He also riled the coach, Jose Aurelio Gay, by turning up late to training on several occasions. Though in light of what's just happened, maybe he simply forgot he was a star footballer.


The 28-year-old right-winger signed a permanent contract for Stoke last December.
