Footballers are known for their extravagant lifestyles, but nothing causes more attention than the purchase of a new car.
However, not every footballer spends their salary on a supercar. We’ve picked out ten players who drive normal road cars, who wouldn’t stick out too much if you drove past them in the street.
Jesus Navas
Car Model: Nissan Micra
Hours/Minutes/Second playing to pay off car: 00:11:17
Games played to pay off car: 0.13
It’s no surprise that Navas drives a regular road car, after all some of his performances are hardly supercar worthy.
N’Golo Kante
Car Model: Mini Cooper SD
Hours/Minutes/Second playing to pay off car: 00:12:58
Games played to pay off car: 0.14
For such a superstar, Kante does have an incredibly modest choice of vehicle.
Fernando Llorente
Car Model: Fiat Punto
Hours/Minutes/Second playing to pay off car: 00:13:52
Games played to pay off car: 0.15
Llorente is a beast on the field, but his car choice suggests he’s tame off it.
Benedikt Howedes
Car Model: Volkswagen Beetle Cabrio
Hours/Minutes/Second playing to pay off car: 00:15:52
Games played to pay off car: 0.18
An efficient German defender has gone for an efficient German vehicle.
Gianluigi Buffon
Car Model: Fiat 500
Hours/Minutes/Second playing to pay off car: 00:19:48
Games played to pay off car: 0.22
Buffon clearly loves to keep his car choice modest and Italian.
Salvatore Sirigu
Car Model: Mini Cooper
Hours/Minutes/Second playing to pay off car: 00:21:09
Games played to pay off car: 0.23
Like Buffon, Sirigu is a giant, so it’s surprising to see if he even fits behind the wheel of a Mini Cooper.
Pedro
Car Model: Peugeot 280GTi
Hours/Minutes/Second playing to pay off car: 00:23:41
Games played to pay off car: 0.26
A rather modest choice of car for a footballer who’s won everything there is to win in the game.
Willian
Car Model: BMW M3
Hours/Minutes/Second playing to pay off car: 00:26:07
Games played to pay off car: 0.29
An upmarket road car, but one that won’t stand out too much in the leafy suburbs of Surrey.
Darren Fletcher
Car Model: Chevrolet Impala
Hours/Minutes/Second playing to pay off car: 00:26:49
Games played to pay off car: 0.30
Another nice road car which won’t stand out too much.
Joey Barton
Car Model: Toyota Prius
Hours/Minutes/Second playing to pay off car: 00:28:56
Games played to pay off car: 0.32
Always one to express his views on everything, Barton’s car choice is clearly based upon climate change.
