London, Jan.20 (ANI): English Premier League star Jermaine Pennant - once Britain’s most expensive teenage soccer player - forgot he owned a Porsche, leaving the luxury car at a train station for six months.
Pennant, who has a collection of sports cars, abandoned the Porsche in Spain when he left Spanish club Real Zaragoza for a loan spell at Stoke City last August.
When authorities contacted him about the situation last week, he told them he had forgotten he owned the vehicle.
The 28-year-old, who joined Arsenal for two million pounds as a 15-year-old schoolboy, earned 80,000 pounds a week during his year with Real Zaragoza.
His loan spell at Stoke became permanent last month on a 2.8 million pound transfer.
It was unclear whether he would be reclaiming the vehicle. (ANI)
