Cesc Fabregas was taught an expensive lesson by Willy Caballero when he lost a bet that ended up costing him a Range Rover.
The midfielder posted several tweets detailing the occasion that happened two years ago when the pair played for Chelsea together.
The story had recently been in the press, but the 32-year-old wanted to set the record straight about what exactly happened at the Chelsea training ground.
Fabregas wrote: “So, after a player already told the story to the press of what happened on day in 2018 and many people asked me if it’s true, there we go. Many times for many years after training, I stay a little bit longer to take some penalties.
“I always made little bets with the goalkeepers to put a bit of spice into the challenge. For some reason, I never really missed one. So one day I got too confident and it got out of hand.
Premier League teams should do a Chelsea
“It was Willy Caballero’s turn and I told him that if he saved it I’d get him a Range Rover. Unfortunately for me, he saved it in front of the whole team so u can imagine how it went… I went from feeling most confident, to feeling the most stupid guy on earth.
“Everybody obviously was shouting and laughing that I had to pay my debt. I went to a scrapyard and I found a destroyed Range Rover that couldn’t be used at all for £950 so I said, you know what? I’ll get that.
“The next day they brought to the training ground and well… I’ll show you the rest on a video. The lesson of the story is: Don’t bet at all at any cost.”
Fabregas then posted a video of himself presenting the car to Caballero, much to the amusement of his teammates.
The midfielder left Stamford Bridge in January 2019 to join Monaco after five seasons at the club.
During that time he won four trophies, including two Premier League titles.
