Sunderland FC of England striker, Steven Fletcher, who has scored just seven times in two years has suffered a Twitter backlash online after the photograph of him with super-car, Lamborghini on the driveway of his home went viral.
The 27-year-old footballer was criticised by fans who said the car was ‘undeserved’ and the timing of the photo was ‘really appalling’, after it began circulating three days before his team lost 4-0 at home.
However, his agent said that Fletcher had not put the image on Twitter – adding that it was the company who sold the 217mph supercar who posted the picture online.
Fletcher moved to a £670,000 five-bedroom home in County Durham with his beauty queen partner Rachel Monaghan (right, together), 24, in October 2013, and they live there with their daughter Darcy-Mae.
Sunderland is currently battling relegation in the English premiership with just eight matches to go.
