Manchester City defender Micah Richards has been fined for a driving offence.
The Mirror says Richards has been fined £600 for chatting on his mobile phone while driving his flash Porsche along a busy road.
The Manchester City and England footballer, 22, did not appear in court and pleaded guilty by letter.
Richards was clocked by police taking a call on his mobile while at the wheel of his white four-wheel-drive Porsche Cayenne.
He originally denied the offence and a trial was set for later this month, Manchester magistrates were told.
But celebrity lawyer Nick Freeman - dubbed Mr Loophole - sent the court a letter indicating his change of plea.
