WANTED: Arrest warrant issued for Everton star Pienaar

A warrant has been made for Everton star Steven Pienaar a day after the on-loan Tottenham midfielder scored in their 4-4 draw at Manchester United.

The Daily Mail says Pienaar, 30, is wanted after his Aston Martin DBS was caught speeding twice on the same road in the space of 11 days.

The footballer failed to let the authorities know who was driving and failed to appear at Chelmsford Magistrates Court on Monday.

A judge issued a warrant and said he should be bailed to appear on a date to be fixed so that he can be sentenced. The charge of failing to notify who was driving was proven in his absence.

Pienaar, on loan at Everton from Spurs, faces a possible driving ban as each offence carries a minimum six penalty points.
